SUMMARY:Mark Thomas: 40 in Stand-Up Years
DESCRIPTION:Phil McIntyre Live Ltd by arrangement with Tin Cat Entertainment proudly presents:  \n  \nMark Thomas\n40 in Stand-Up Years\n  \nWhat?! Mark Thomas has been ‘standing up’ for 40 years? Impossible!! But how old does that make you…? Alas it is true; one of our oldest surviving alternative comics celebrates 40 years at the mic. \n  \nSo\, here’s what he has done so far in numbers; performed comedy for 40 years\, won 8 awards for performing\, 4 for human rights work and 1 he invented for himself\, made 6 series of the Mark Thomas Comedy Product (Channel 4)\, written 6 books and 5 play scripts\, made 5 series of the Manifesto for Radio 4\, made 3 Dispatches for Channel 4\, sued the police (and won) 3 times\, curated and authored 2 art exhibitions with artist Tracey Moberly and had 1 Guinness World Record for holding 20 protests in 24 hours. \n  \nIf that’s not enough\, he’s also walked 724km around the length of the Israel Wall in the West Bank\, been credited with changing the law on tax avoidance\, started a comedy club in Palestine with Dr Sam Beale and campaigned successfully for things like trade union recognition for cinema workers and getting multinationals to change their practices. You’re right\, there’s more\, but your attention is running out and we’re running out of space. So let’s just say he’s generally mucked about trying to have fun and upset the right people…which he is really\, really good at. \n  \nSo basically expect a taster menu of government and personal mayhem\, jokes\, rants and a personal state of the nation broadcast as he tries to turn ‘what the f*ck is going on’ into a cogent hour of stand-up. \n  \n★★★★★ “Once again shooting laughter-laden political bullets from the lip” \nTHE RECS \n  \n★★★★★ “Mark Thomas is a firebrand of a clown. The energy he brings to the room is infectious…very\, very funny” \nCLOWNSTER \n  \n★★★★ “The strong ratio of hard-hitting matter to gag-rich mirth is a feat that makes other stand-up look idling and irrelevant” \nTHE TELEGRAPH \n  \nThis event is a fundraiser for the Durham Miners Gala. All proceeds will support the world’s biggest celebration of working class culture.
