About this Event
Comedian,writer and actor David Mitchell is making his debut at Slapstick festival in our ever-popular Top Comedy Moments strand.
During the show, David will reveal his favourite moments of on-screen comedy, including Peter Sellers, John Cleese and Tina Fey, to Matthew Sweet (Free Thinking, Radio 3) and explain how they influenced his own comedy.
We are delighted to be hosting this unique opportunity to discover what helped shape the comedic mind of the cynical yet always hilarious king of dry wit. Known for his memorable on-screen performances such as Ben Elton’s satirical interpretation of Shakespeare on ‘Upstart Crow’ , his stellar portfolio of fine television and radio comedy including the enduring Would I Lie to You, The Mitchell and Webb look, The Unbelievable Truth and the BAFTA winning cult classic Peep Show.
With an opportunity to ask David a question too, this is a rare chance to hear the man discuss his comedy influences.
