Exciting news just announced!
Due to popular demand, comedian, novelist and self-proclaimed professional show-off, Jenny Eclair, will be extending her nationwide tour ‘Jokes, Jokes, Jokes Live!’ with additional dates this autumn, including a performance at Theatre Royal in Bury St Edmunds.
Still gigging to sell-out crowds, this brand-new, autobiographical show celebrates the release of her hilarious memoir and has already enjoyed a critically acclaimed run.
From drama school, (mostly drinking cider and eating sausage rolls) to being the first woman to win the Perrier Award, Jenny invites you to look back at what she can remember before she forgets everything!
Reviewing the show, Dominic Maxwell at The Times says: “Gleefully giving the show of her life…In this gag-laden live version of her autobiography, the comedian dishes out ready quips, honest self-assessment and a slew of earthy observations on the ageing process…consistently entertaining.” ★★★★
Book now to join Eclair for a riotous trip down memory lane.
Tickets go on priority sale at 2pm on Thursday 24 April, and general sale at 10am on Friday 25 April.
This successful new tour comes hot on the heels of her previously twice extended UK tour, ‘Sixty! (FFS!)’, and her recent participation in the 15th series of the critically acclaimed global hit show, ‘Taskmaster’.
Jenny is also well known for her starring role on BBC1’s ‘Grumpy Old Women’, which ran for three series before touring across the UK and Australia. Continuing her partnership with that show’s producer, Judith Holder, Jenny co-hosts the podcast ‘Older and Wider’, a weekly ramble about life with additional swearing. Eclair is also a critically acclaimed author with seven novels, a collection of short stories and a number of non-fiction books under her belt, including ‘Older and Wider - A Survivors Guide to the Menopause’ and most recently ‘Jokes, Jokes, Jokes, My Very Funny Memoir’ which was released in October 2024.
Jenny’s TV appearances include Grumpy Old Women S1-3, Richard Osman’s House of Games, Celebrity MasterChef, The Great Pottery Throw Down Festive Celebrity Special, The Apprentice: You’re Fired!, Room 101, Celebrity Bridge of Lies (BBC), Taskmaster S15 (Channel 4), Loose Women, Pointless Celebrities, The Chase: Celebrity Special (ITV), Alan Davies As Yet Untitled, QI (UKTV). Reality TV appearances include Splash and I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here (ITV) in 2010, in which Jenny came third.
Jenny Eclair is at Theatre Royal, Bury St Edmunds on September 25.
