An Evening with Jasper Carrott & Alistair McGowan

Comedy legends JASPER CARROTT and ALISTAIR McGOWAN join forces to split the bill and your sides with a night of comedy stand-up and impressions. The two masters of comedy present a show of pure laughter and entertainment that is not to be missed.

When the pair first teamed up for a one-off festival appearance it proved a match made in comedy heaven and the chance to work together again was simply too good to miss. Splitting the evening between them, the mix of Jasper’s inimitable stand up and Alistair’s peerless impressions is a terrific experience for audience and artists alike.

Don’t miss this chance to see the godfather of British comedy Jasper Carrott and Britain’s leading comedy impressionist Alistair McGowan at the top of their game, having a blast and delighting audiences in their unique ways.

Jasper Carrott:

“…easily the funniest stand-up I’ve ever seen.” Jeremy Clarkson - The Sun

Alistair McGowan:

“His vocal virtuosity is extraordinary: razor-sharp… split-second timing…” Reviewsgate.co.uk

Jasper Carrott

Jasper Carrott appearing at this event

A career that has spanned five decades first started when Jasper became resident compére at the Boggery Folk Club in Birmingham in the mid-'70s. There he discovered his talent for comedy, and his inability to sing; the rest, as they say, is history. Apart from his stand-up comedy and TV shows such as 'Carrot's Commercial Breakdown', this award-winning Brummie comedian is probably best known for his spoof police drama with Robert Powell, 'The Detectives', and his undying passion for Birmingham City FC.

Alistair McGowan

Alistair McGowan appearing at this event

The nation's favourite impressionist, also known for his brilliant stand-up and acting. McGowan is best known for his work with Ronni Ancona on The Big Impression (formerly Alistair McGowan's Big Impression), which spawned his culturally popular impressions of David Beckham, Sven-Goran Eriksson, Gary Lineker, Richard Madeley, Tony Blair, Ross Geller (Friends) and Dot Cotton (EastEnders). His one-man stand-up shows are also critically acclaimed. "Wickedly funny mimicry" - Sunday Mirror. "Even if Alistair McGowan wasn't an impressionist and stuck simply to stand-up gaggery, he'd surely be one of the best comics on the circuit. As it is, he gives us a double layer of excellence" - This Is Nottingham
