Plus dates for David Elms and others.
Sam Campbell has announced his biggest tour yet, with 29 dates across the UK.
The comic – who can be seen on Taskmaster's Champion Of Champions this Christmas – will take his Kid Giblet show on the road next autumn, including a date at London’s 3,600-seater Eventim Apollo
Of the show, Campbell says: ‘I definitely don't know what's going on. I'm not even sure I know what's happening anymore. BUT I cannot wait to come to your town and respect your traditions. I have been on TV over five times.
‘May I divulge a secret? I have purchased a large metal ring. I will use it to keep all of the keys to the city that are given to me by the mayors I impress with my showmanship.
‘Live comedy is straight-up amazing because people gather to watch it in a spectacular setting rather than ogling an evil phone screen in some horrid grey dank little corner.’
Also today, David Elms has announced that he is taking his one-man improv show David Elms Describes a Room on a short tour, including a two-week run at London's Soho Theatre.
The show won a raft of four-star reviews at the Edinburgh Fringe (including Chortle’s), with the comedian building up an image of a room in minute detail based on audience suggestions, then acting out someone arriving into it.
Audiences from past shows are now being encouraged to record their additions to the rooms they created here to help build ‘something fun’
Vidura Bandara Rajapaksa has announced seven UK dates for his 2026 Paradise Gothic tour across – part of a 24-nigth run across Europe.
The show is described as a ‘sharp, darkly funny new hour exploring immigration, anarchism, "radical" Buddhism, and the absurdities of attempting to build a life within late-stage capitalism’.

Australian viral comedy team Sooshi Mango – who have racked up more than a billion views online – are to play Manchester Apollo, Edinburgh’s Usher Hall and London’s Eventim Apollo on June 12, 13 and 15 respectively, it has been announced.
Elms’s tickets are on sale now – the rest will be available from 10am on Friday.
