Susan Calman hasn’t been on tour in ten years, but now she’s back with a brand-new show. A decade older, but not necessarily wiser, Susan has found herself in some improbable situations over the years. Tall tales is a show about Cruising, driving tanks, cats and getting older. You might have seen her on the television or heard her on the radio but the absolute best way to see her is live on stage. You won’t believe how short she really is. Prepare yourself for an evening of barely believable stories, laughter and probably some dancing.

As seen on Grand Day Out, Cruising with Susan Calman, QI, House of Games and (a long time ago) Strictly Come Dancing.
