CALLING ALL COMEDY LOVERS! 🤣‼️ Hal Cruttenden is coming to Diss on Saturday 27 June!

His new show. Hal Cruttenden: Can Dish It Out But Can’t Take It, promises to stick it to ‘The Man’, as long as ‘The Man’ doesn’t stick it back to him.

With his trademark hard-hitting ‘take no prisoners’ comedy he will be hilariously pontificating on subjects like middle aged dating, social media, the insanity of modern politics and the fact that his daughters love him but don’t respect him.

His last tour was extended four times and he’s one of a select number of comics to have done Live At The Apollo three times and the Royal Variety twice, TV also includes Have I Got News For You, The Apprentice You’re Fired, Bake Off Extra Slice and Would I Lie To You.

'Reminded me of how much I love stand up' ★★★★ The Times
'Go and see Hal Cruttenden, he’s got something to say and he’ll make you laugh; a lot.’ ★★★★★ Daily Mirror
‘Naturally funny…challenging and provocative’ ★★★★ Daily Telegraph

Suitable for ages 16+
