Mark Thomas brings his milestone tour to Hull, celebrating four decades of politically charged stand-up. Known for his sharp wit and anarchic spirit, Thomas rose to fame on Channel 4's *The Mark Thomas Comedy Product*, where he turned comedy into a tool for activism—once forcing a change in inheritance tax law after a stunt involving MP Nicholas Soames.
This show promises the trademark blend of storytelling, satire, and audience engagement that has defined his career. Expect a night of laughter laced with sharp commentary on power, politics, and the absurdities of modern life, delivered by a comedian who has spent 40 years holding the powerful to account.
