Larry Dean announces 2024 tour

Dodger revolves around his grandmother's dementia and his autism diagnosis

Larry Dean has announced a new stand-up show, Dodger, his biggest so far.

In the show, the three-time Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee, contemplates his heroes and his identity

His hero was Elvis, but with his granny’s dementia diagnosis he has found a new perspective on who deserves our respect and why. The comic also reflects on his own mind since being newly diagnosed as autistic. 

Dean’s last stand-up special Fandan, produced by 800 Pound Gorilla Media, was released last year and aired on Channel 4. 

He heads off for an Australian tour later this month and will be seen on The World’s Most Dangerous Roads on March 31, heading for  the remote island of Bhutan with Jamali Maddixf or the Dave TV show.

Dean’s other TV credits include Live at the Apollo, Mock the Week and  Michael McIntyre’s Big Show.

He will soon be seen on BBC Two’s QI – and also as a role in the forthcoming romcom film This Time Next Year. 

Tickets for the new tour go on general sale on Friday.
