Mark Thomas has announced his next show. And as usual with the prolific comedian, it is very different to his last one.

Showtime From The Frontline tells the story of how Thomas and his team set out to run a comedy club for two nights in the Palestinian city of Jenin. Only to find it’s not so simple to celebrate freedom of speech in a place with so little freedom. 

Thomas will tell this story alongside two of Jenin's actors and aspiring comics, Faisal Abualheja and Alaa Shehada.  A story about being yourself in a place that wants to put you in a box.

With sell-out shows, non-stop awards, the highest critical acclaim, his own TV and radio shows, numerous documentaries, published books,  Guinness World Records, influencing changes in the law, creating manifestos and exposing arms trade dealers, it’s no wonder that Mark is one of the UK’s most recognised performers and influential activists.

Tour dates here.
