West End run for Jonathan Pie

Two weeks at the Duke Of York’s Theatre for his Heroes and Villains show

Jonathan Pie has announced a two-week West End run.

The dates at the Duke Of York’s Theatre follow a 41-date tour of his latest show, Heroes & Villains.

Tom Walker, the man behind the character of a permanently aggreived political journalist,  said: ‘In an age where the West End is full of jukebox musicals, a six hour play about Harry Potter, audiences who pretend to understand Shakespeare and critics who think Waiting For Godot is in any way "laugh out loud’" funny, I am proud as punch to be bringing a touch of class to London’s once thriving theatre scene.

‘Join me for an evening of me talking about politics and other things you might have already seen in the news recently. It might not be as much fun as the Harry Potter thing… but it’s probably cheaper and certainly a lot shorter.’

Pie emerged from social media, where he has 1.7 million Facebook followers. His last live show Jonathan Pie: Back To The Studio’ aired on BBC One and last year he made the Radio 4 series and podcast Call Jonathan Pie.

Jonathan Pie: Heroes & Villains will play The Duke Of York’s Theatre from April 16 to 27. Tickets are on sale now here.
