Mark Steel is heading to The Mowlem with his brand new tour 'What The F*** Is Going On?'

In his hit BBC Radio 4 show ‘Mark Steel’s In Town’, Mark tries to explain simply and plainly how each town works. In this brand-new show he’ll do the same, but for the state of the world. He’ll be calmly and gently yelling in exasperation at the crazy fruitbat bonkers eruptions of infuriating insanity that blasts in every direction at us all, so that at the end of the show it all makes sense and we can relax in a dreamy sense of well-being and never be bothered by anything ever again.

🎟️ Tickets are now ON SALE so head to our website to book your seats!

First look behind-the-scenes shots of No. 1 Holiday Destination performing at The Mowlem this November!

Presented by Artsreach Dorset

A bold, fast-paced new comedy set in a freshly independent country with a big idea and absolutely no plan for what comes next.

A nation decides to solve the problem of mass tourism once and for all by nationalising it. What starts as an idealistic attempt to protect culture, community, and coastline quickly snowballs into a spectacular experiment, complete with absurd rules, escalating chaos, and consequences nobody saw coming.

The No. 1 Holiday Destination promises a smart, silly, and uncomfortably familiar night at the theatre.

📅 Monday 9th November 2026 7:30 PM
