Simon Evans is one of the UK’s most respected and best loved comedians.
Familiar from numerous TV and radio appearances, as well as for his live tour shows and festival appearances, he is particularly popular on the corporate and after-dinner circuit. He has been at the top of his game now for nearly thirty years yet his current tour show “HaveWe Met?” has been described by delighted fans as his best yet and in print and across radio and TV he has never been more productive.
On BBC Radio 4, his series Simon Evans Goes toMarket, has now enjoyed six seasons, delighting audiences with his witty and insightful take on the comedically unpromising territory of economics, all of which prove among the most popular downloads on theSounds App.
He also wrote and presented Simon Evans is Right, a relatively serious look at the difficulties faced by BBC Radio 4 in achieving political balance in their comedy output, which can also be found on Sounds.
Meanwhile Simon has now co-devised (and appears on the panel of) One Person Found This Helpful, hosted byFrank Skinner—the popular new Radio 4 panel game that delights in the eccentric world of online reviews.
He is also a regular on Radio 4’s The News Quiz.
Simon’s previous live tour shows such as Work of theDevil, Genius 2.0, Friendly Fire and Leashed have sold out theatres around the country and
garnered superlative reviews from national and comedy press.
At the Edinburgh Festival, Genius 2.0received the rare and highly coveted ★★★★★ rating from The Scotsman - the reviewer describing it as a “Masterclass”.
Work of the Devil (2019-2023) took Simon into new territory, delivering a “jaw-dropping” story [Chortle] of remarkable, unexpected emotional depth and tenderness without sacrificing any of the laughs. Manyaudience members described it on Twitter as among thebest things they’d ever seen. He continues to work this new seam with his current show Have We Met? On the corporate and after dinner circuit, Simon ischerished for his ability to perform an entirely clean setwithout compromising on the laughs - but also to“strengthen” the language when appropriate, withoutdescending into vulgarity. His relative maturity andreference points have made him a great hit with audiences who might find some of his peers’ comedy rather juvenile.
As usual there will be strong supporting undercard of two quality comedians to warm you up before Simon's turn on stage!
