Let’s face it, we all need a good laugh now and again – and Peterborough’s New Theatre looks like the place to go for it.

The next 12 months will see a host of household names from the world of stand-up comedy take to the stage to bring laughter to the Broadway venue, many of them returning after previous successful visits down the years.

Kicking things off is Scouse funnyman John Bishop, and before Christmas you can also enjoy TV’s Lucy Beaumont, a four-strong line-up of Allstars and the hilarious Simon Brodkin,

February will see Jimmy Carr, Jon Culshaw and Al Murray bringing their own inimitable styles , and as 2025 progresses look out for Jimeoin, Paul Chowdhry, Stewart Lee, Julian Clary and Babatunde Aleshe.
