CloseStar of the recent critically acclaimed BBC4 documentary, How the West Was Lost, Edinburgh fringe favourite and Perrier Award winner Rich Hall is back on the road.
Rich will be performing in his usual style as the grouchy, deadpan comic genius.
Looking like a Pearl Jam roadie, Rich is a master of absurdist irony – he particularly likes to lay into Americans and life across the Pond at every opportunity. He has been charming sell-out audiences each year at the Edinburgh Festival, on tours throughout the UK, at several festivals in Australia including Adelaide and Melbourne and at London’s famous Comedy Store. At the 2000 Edinburgh Festival, Rich Hall is Otis Lee Crenshaw won the highly prestigious Perrier Award. Rich Hall’s TV work includes; Rich Hall’s Cattle Drive (BBC4), Rich Hall’s Fishing Show (BBC4) plus numerous appearances on BBC2 panel show QI, hosted by Stephen Fry.
