Direct from the Edinburgh festival, and his latest smash-hit nationwide tour, the legendary Canadian stand-up star is back on the road with a brand-new show. The Risky Business tour kicks off in September 2024; takes in 80+ dates across the UK and Ireland and runs until March 2025.
As seen/heard on Have A Word Pod, Ch4’s Comedy Gala, Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow, The John Bishop Show, Live at the Apollo (so good, he’s done it twice) and much more.
An irrepressible tour-de-force with decades of touring experience under his belt, Tom upholds a reputation as one of the most prolific and distinctive stand-ups around. He continues to perform at international festivals across the globe, and remains as innovative, engaging, and hilarious as ever.
Combining off-the-scale charm, razor-sharp wit, and a playful, unabashed attitude, he has the unique gift of drawing audiences in and transcending generational gaps. He’s proudly amassed a legion of die-hard fans: collectively nick named The Stadinese Army, with Tom (aka The Commander) proudly leading the charge.
What can audiences expect from this latest show?
Tom’s funny and today’s funny don’t always see eye to eye, but that’s cool; it’s not Tom’s way to follow the herd. He much prefers to take the path less travelled (some smart guy once said that).
It’s a risky business navigating the tightrope of today’s times but Tom’s approaching it with his usual gusto. Join him as he airdrops his ingenious and unflinching comedy into an ever-changing minefield. After all, without risk there is no reward.
