Description

Michael Parkinson isn't coping well with retirement, and while wandering the streets of London trying to interview anyone that will give him the time of day, he has stumbled across a theatre above a pub where he can attempt to relive his glory days as the King of the Chat Show


Join "Parky" as he welcomes to the stage the good, the bad and ugly of the world of showbiz, together with guest appearances from top stand-ups and live musical guests


This month, bringing the celeb will be:

PIPPA EVANS

London improv royalty, star of Olivier Award nominated West End smash Showstopper! The Improvised Musical, as seen on the tellybox in Fast and Loose, Live at the Electric and Alan Davies' As Yet Untitled, and creator of the monstrously hilarious musical charcater Loretta Maine.

She damn good, basically...

"You fall in love with Evans within the first 5 minutes" FOUR STARS - Broadway Baby

BRENDAN MURPHY

A member of Edinburgh Festival favourites Battle Acts and the all star improv show The Beau Zeaux (alongside Pippa, Rachel Parris, Marcus Brigstocke and more). Brendan also wrote and starred in the critcally acclaimed one man character show Bagman at the 2015 Edinburgh Fringe.

IAN THOMAS DAY

Part of The Free Association Harold team The Wilsons and co-host of the podcast Fact Up, UK based Canadian comedian Ian is one of the best up and coming improvisers in London, and stalwart of many an FA show

With live stand-up from SARAH KEYWORTH

Fantastic up and coming stand-up who already has the confidence and material of a seasoned pro. Went down a storm when making her Gits and Shiggles debut in Putney in February - we're delighted to have her back for Parky

FOUR STARS - Edfringe Review

And live music from NEIL WINSPEAR

One half of Winspear and William and part of Festival legends and Adelaide Fringe award winners Friday I'm in Love.
