Previewing his new Larks In Transit tour

Bill Bailey is launching his 2018 tour with a run of London dates over Christmas, it has been announced today.

While most comics tend to put the capital late into their tour schedules, Bailey will be performing five preview nights at the Shepherds Bush Empire a month before the UK tour kicks off. He will be at the Shepherds Bush Empire with Christmas Larks on December 23 27, 28, 29 and 30.

The tour proper – entitled Larks in Transit – kicks off in Coventry's Warwick Arts Centre on January 29, and will play at venues across the country until June. (Schedule and tickets).

The show promises 'a compendium of travellers' tales and the general shenanigans of 20 years as a travelling comedian' as well as the usual displays of his musical virtuosity.

He also has a handful of warm-up dates at London's Leicester Square Theatre, starting tomorrow. (Tickets).

The Shepherds Bush dates go on sale at 10am on Friday.
