![New Tour For Justin Moorhouse New Tour For Justin Moorhouse](https://beyondthejoke.co.uk/sites/default/files/styles/large/public/justin_square.png?itok=Qtb7VJ_I)
Justin Moorhouse has been heralded plenty of times as one of the UK’s greatest practitioners of live standup, as well as being a noted performer on our TV screens. But he’s also been known to perform in ‘real life’. All of us do, in fact: depending on our circumstances, and others’ expectations.
This is the starting point for a poignant exploration of live performance itself, intertwined with a ride through life’s many ups and downs in the hands of a true master storyteller. Along the way you’ll hear how Justin accidentally saw his favourite band in the best venue in the world, hear him recount seeing a one-hit wonder play that hit three times in the space of a single evening, and reveal the greatest performance he’s ever seen which left him cold. All this, plus some personal moments, all delivered with the warmth and charisma this enduringly popular comic never fails to deliver. At least, he’d better not fail to, given what he admits himself is something of a bold show title.
The show may contain: a song, a twist, a feeling of hope. It will certainly contain many laughs.
Justin has performed around the world and his TV and film credits include tiger-faced Young Kenny in Phoenix Nights, Ken Loach’s Looking for Eric, 8 Out Of 10 Cats and Alan Davies: As Yet Untitled. He has performed stand-up comedy on television several times, including Live at the Apollo (BBC2) and multiple series of The Comedy Store (Comedy Central) and One Night Stand (Dave). Justin was also Michael McIntyre’s guest on his Blackpool leg of Comedy Roadshow (BBC1).
He has won Celebrity Mastermind majestically, won fortunes for charity on Celebrity Storage Hunters and lost even more magnificently on Celebrity Eggheads and Pointless Celebrities (twice). He’s appeared on Richard Osman’s House of Games, QI, and is also a firm favourite in Dictionary Corner on C4’s Countdown
On radio, Justin has written and starred in two series of his own Radio 4 sitcom Everyone Quite Likes Justin and often appears on Radio 4’s The News Quiz. He’s a Champion of Champions on BBC5 Live’s Fighting Talk and regularly contributes to The Warm Up on Talk Sport with Max Rushden and Barry Glendenning.
Justin’s critically acclaimed podcast, About 30 Minutes, No More Than 45 has had over a million downloads and is coming up to its 300th episode.
