The double British Comedy Award winner, co-writer and star of Phoenix Nights is back on the road. In this new show, Dave Spikey tackles the old adage “Laughter is the Best Medicine”. It was his dad’s favourite saying; which is why when Dave was six, he nearly died with diphtheria.

In later years, working in the NHS as a biomedical scientist, Dave discovered for himself that scientific evidence endorsed his dad’s wise words, it has been proven that when we laugh our bodies release a cocktail of chemicals and hormones which reduce stress and blood pressure, lift depression, boost the immune system and here’s the clincher... burn calories!

So this new show is Dave’s small contribution to improving the health of the nation.

Come along and have a laugh at his tales of stunned guinea pigs, sexual awakenings, cannibals, penile implants, laxative chocolate, the sun going around the moon and how he actually was “covered in piss”. Hopefully you’ll go away in much better health PLUS if you laugh for just one hour you’ll burn off 200 calories and that’s a pint of lager!
