Rich Hall
Winner: Barry Award Melbourne International Comedy Festival
Everyone’s favourite sardonic straight shooter, Rich Hall, returns!
After a sell-out Fringe season in 2016 the cranky yank is back, bringing more of his trademark wit and caustic conversation.
Rich Hall nimbly delivers line after line of on-point political observations and has collected a legion of fans around the world through tv appearances on QI and Have I Got News For You and his own BBC 4 documentaries, Hall cuts deep into the human condition in wry style.
An expert stand-up, musician and improviser, Rich Hall is a master of irony and the absurd.
