Sara Pascoe has announced a major tour of the UK and Ireland entitleed I Am A Strange Gloop.
Her first tour since 2022 will begin on Saturday 21st June 2025 in Ipswich at the New Wolsey Theatre. She will perform at the London Palladium on Sunday 1st March 2026.
Through her trademark confessional comedy, Sara contemplates a new era. Gone are the days of self-exploration via sexual safari, instead this middle-aged new mum must work out who she is while watching Peppa Pig, coated with squashed banana down her jumper and sweet potato in her hair.
Sara Pascoe said: “I have grown to depend on touring, not only because of my deep love of performing stand up, but also to avoid the difficult bedtimes of my unruly children”.
Have you ever been awake in the middle of the night and thought something so smart and astute that you couldn’t wait for the world to wake up so you could tell them? THIS SHOW IS THAT THOUGHT. In that it doesn’t make much sense and is a bit weird on reflection. Sara Pascoe is a comedian and her children don’t sleep and her kitchen won’t clean itself and her husband “doesn’t want to be in it”.
Sara has earned critical acclaim for her stand up, writing, broadcasting and podcasting. As a TV regular, Sara has appeared on the likes of Taskmaster (C4), Live At The Apollo (BBC Two), QI (BBC Two), 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown (Channel 4), Mock The Week (BBC Two) and more. Sara has also recently been announced as part of Prime Video’s Last One Laughing UK which will air in 2025. Sara is the co-host, alongside comedian and long-time friend Cariad Lloyd of Sara & Cariad’s Weirdos Book Club (Plosive Podcasts) - an audio book club for people who don’t like wine, or nibbles, or being around other people.
As an author, Sara released her first novel Weirdo in 2023, following Sunday Times Best Selling non-fiction book Sex, Power, Money. Sara’s break out book Animal - which combined autobiography with evolutional history, was developed into the full BBC sitcom Out of Her Mind.
