Always a good show from Mark Thomas. Saw his swearing ban one at the Lowry and his show on the NHS in recent years.

Was at Glastonbury years ago and during the afternoon session in the Comedy Tent, Mark Thomas was comparing. Young lad at the front, about 18 and clearly high as a kite, starts shouting at Mark. Mark responds by inviting him to use the microphone. Next thing this kid is on the stage and pulls out a massive knife. He has the knife to Marks neck and time just froze. Mark didn’t freak out and calmly made a few jokes about the situation he was in whilst Security slowly tried to creep towards this lad. After a few minutes the lad just jumps off the stage and into the crowd and hightails it out of the tent. Mark lookd shocked but okay and then pointed out the lad was naked apart from some skimpy underpants and wondered where the hell he had been hiding the knife

Saw this play before he took it to the Edinburgh festival. It was excellent: poignant, hard hitting and sometimes funny.

Damn, can’t go to this.

I catch him pretty much every tour he does.

I wasn't sure he could do proper acting rather than stand up, but I was wrong. He was excellent.

This is on my "to see" list at the crucible, next month i think.
