Rhod Gilbert Dates Postponed But Good News On Health Front
Comedian Rhod Gilbert has been forced to postpone his shows that were due to take place in the New Year. but he has issued a statement with some good news about his ongoing cancer treatment. It is a different medical condition that means the dates have to be rescheduled. Here is the statement in full:
"Thanks again for all your kind words and support. As you probably know I'm recovering well from my cancer treatment and can’t wait to get back to work next year. Happy days.
Less happy days, I’ve been thrown another curveball in the form of gallstones and recurring gallbladder infections that kick like a donkey and need hospital treatment. I am having surgery to remove the offending gallbladder, and this is scheduled to happen early in the New Year.
So I hate doing this, but I am going to have to postpone my January tour shows. I genuinely can't wait to get back on stage, but on doctor’s advice, I'll have to wait a little longer and we are postponing the remaining 7 shows.
All tickets will remain valid for the new dates; you do not have to do anything; venue box offices (or Ticketmaster if you booked with them) will be in touch in due course. Please be patient with them whilst they work through everything.
I really hope that ticket-holders are able to make it to the new dates. They are the last few dates on my ’Book of John’ tour, and I’m very much looking forward to getting out there, back to what I love doing and performing the show live again.
I thank each and every one of you for your continuing patience….rest assured, the show WILL go on.
Merry xmas again
Big love
RHOD
