Comedy at the Museum ft. Darren Harriott & More
Advertisement
Get ready for an unforgettable evening as top-tier comedians bring the laughs to one of Birmingham’s most beautiful and unique venues: the historic Tearoom at Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery.
Headlining This November: Darren Harriott.
The first Black British stand-up comedian to be nominated for the prestigious Edinburgh Comedy Award, Darren Harriott brings his razor-sharp wit and infectious storytelling to the stage this November.
A double Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee, Darren is one of the UK's most recognisable comedians and broadcasters. His television credits include Dancing on Ice, Love Island: Aftersun (co-host), Live at the Apollo, Britain's Best Takeaway, Guessable, Don't Hate the Playaz, and appearances on The Last Leg, Richard Osman's House of Games, Mock the Week, Would I Lie to You?, and many more. His 2023 Edinburgh Fringe show, Roadman, received widespread critical acclaim, earning four-star reviews from The Mail on Sunday, The Skinny and EdFest Magazine, while being named a Pick of the Fringe by both The Guardian and Evening Standard.
Originally from Birmingham, Darren worked as a security guard before making his breakthrough in comedy. Since then, he has toured internationally, performed at major comedy festivals across the UK and Australia, and established himself as one of the country's most in-demand stand-up performers.
A self-confessed fitness fanatic, fashion enthusiast and sports obsessive, Darren combines relatable stories, quick-fire observations and effortless charisma to create a truly unforgettable live show.
"This very funny Brummie makes joke telling look simple."
