The comedian mines the most tragic event in his life for laughs

Venue: artsdepot, 5 Nether Street, Tally Ho Corner, North Finchley N12 0GA

Date/time: Friday, November 8

Info: Attributed to Mark Twain, humor is defined as Tragedy Plus Time. Come and join Ed as he tests this formula, making fun of the most tragic event of his life.

With his TV career now in its third decade, Ed has appeared regularly on the likes of QI, Mock The Week, Alan Davies As Yet Untitled, pilgrimage, Dara and Ed’s Road to Mandalay, Dara and Ed’s big adventure, The Graham Norton Show and I have news for youas well as hosting Live at Apollo and Comic Relief Bake Off. He was recently seen as a contestant on BBC One The best celebrity home cook (where he managed to look 5 out of 8 – not bad!) and also won (yes, won!) celebrity versions of both tracking and No Sens!

With legions of fans both in the UK and abroad, Ed remains the observational stand-up to watch.
