Following his Fringe stint, Stone will embark on his inaugural UK national tour, remarking, “…about f**ing time*”.
The tour kicks off in Leicester at Firebug on 15th September, making stops at iconic venues like London’s Comedy Store on 18th November, and concluding in Birmingham at The Glee Club on 29th November.
Tickets for the UK Tour are available on Stone’s website.
Ian’s Perspective
Stone, known for his razor-sharp wit, tackles the chaos of the world while trying to maintain composure. From political turmoil to personal takes on daily life. His show promises answers to pressing questions like the fate of his numerous pens and it’s not as normal as you think!
As Stone puts it,
Ian IS keeping it together but only just.
Prolific Career
Hailed as “a masterful exponent of self-mocking Jewish humour” by The Times, Stone’s comedy has earned him awards and widespread acclaim. His previous Fringe show, ‘Ian Stone will Make it Better’, garnered packed houses and won a Spirit of The Fringe award in 2023.
Beyond stand-up, Stone is a prolific broadcaster and author, known for his appearances on various TV and radio shows, including his podcast on Arsenal FC. His book, “To Be Someone”, offers a unique blend of autobiography, social history, and fandom.
It will be good to catch up. It’s a real privilege to continually get work together even though our friendship is fake and completely fabricated for commercial gain.
