Following a sell-out UK and Ireland Spring tour, comic legend Frank Skinner adds extra tour dates in Autumn 2024 for his critically acclaimed new stand-up show, ‘30 Years of Dirt’.
Frank Skinner’s live career began in 1987 when he spent £400 of his last £435 booking a room at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Four years later in 1991 he returned to the city and took home comedy’s most prestigious prize. Frank created The Frank Skinner Show, which is widely credited as setting the tone for the modern comedic chat show. He has presented documentaries covering passions including, Muhammad Ali and Elvis. His Absolute Radio show has won three gold awards for Best Speech Programme (2011 and 2014) and Best Entertainment/Comedy Production (2017) at the ARIAs and saw him inducted into the Radio Academy Hall of Fame.
His latest stand-up show, Showbiz, has enjoyed a sold out national tour and subsequent sold out residency at the West End’s Garrick Theatre.

A comedian so funny that it’s almost obscene. 30 Years of Dirt is a sparkling tour de force from a craftsman with exquisite control of his art.”
