Mark Watson - Before It Overtakes Us

Mark Watson Brings New Stand-Up Show to Stourbridge

Multi-award-winning comedian Mark Watson will bring his latest stand-up show Before It Overtakes Us to Stourbridge Town Hall on Friday 15 May.

Celebrating more than 20 years in stand-up, Watson returns to the stage following acclaimed appearances at major international comedy festivals including Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and the Edinburgh Fringe.

Known to many as the cheeky texting icon from Taskmaster and a familiar voice on BBC Radio 4, Watson’s latest show explores the uncertain future facing humanity — alongside topics such as the worst word he has ever said in public and the current state of the UK sausage industry.

Kelly Martin, manager at Stourbridge Town Hall, said:

“Mark Watson is one of the most distinctive and inventive comedians working today, so we’re delighted to welcome him to Stourbridge Town Hall. It promises to be a brilliant evening of quick-fire, intelligent comedy from a performer who always keeps audiences on their toes.”

Comedy fans can also enjoy a packed programme of live comedy across Dudley borough in the coming months, including Kum-n-avaloff Comedy Nights at Stourbridge Town Hall on Thursday 7 May and Thursday 4 June, An Evening with Jimmy Tarbuck at Dudley Town Hall on Thursday 21 May, An Audience with Mick Miller on Thursday 28 May, The Dudley Comedy Allstars on Saturday 25 July, Jonny Cole on Thursday 9 and Friday 10 July, and Paul Smith on Wednesday 19 August.
