Marcus Brigstocke Extends His Vitruvian Mango Tour

Marcus Brigstocke – Man Going On Tour

Following two sellout runs earlier this year, Marcus Brigstocke has extended his show Vitruvian Mango into the Autumn.

What are men for? Most heavy things can be lifted by machines and most problems can be solved by computers and most puddles can be crossed without us gallantly draping our capes over them - so are we fellas of any use at all?

Award winning MAN Marcus Brigstocke thinks we might still serve some useful function. But what is it?  In his new tour show, Marcus will resolve the entire issue once and for all (in a non-patriarchal, open minded, progressive sort of way).

DaVinci’s Vitruvian Man is the image of the ideal male form. Marcus’ Vitruvian Mango is the same, but sweeter, softer, seasonally available and, when ripe, delicately perfumed.

BBC Radio 4 has become somewhat of a second home to Marcus with regular appearances on I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue, The Now Show and Just A Minute; he has written and recorded three series and four specials of his hit show Giles Wemmbley-Hogg Goes Off. He also co-starred alongside Kerry Godliman, in three series of The Wilsons Save The World. 

As well as making the semi-final of Celebrity Master Chef recently, Marcus has notched up an impressive list of TV credits including Steph’s Packed Lunch (C4), Comedians Giving Lectures (DAVE), House of Games (BBC Two), The Graham Norton Show (BBC One), Famous and Fighting Crime (C4), team captain on Argumental (Dave), and host of The Late Edition and I’ve Never Seen Star Wars (BBC4). Other appearances include; Live At The Apollo (BBC1), Have I Got News For You (BBC1), Mock the Week (BBC2), QI (BBC2), Sorry I’ve Got No Head (BBC1), The Late Edition (BBC4), and the 11 O’Clock Show (Channel 4).

Marcus also hosts the hit podcast How Was It For You? with his wife Rachel Parris.
