At the start of 2020, Frank Skinner had been entertaining audiences at his completely sold out five-week run of Showbiz at the West End’s Garrick Theatre and was set to take his critically acclaimed show back on the road nationwide. But due to the ongoing Covid-19 situation, his rescheduled January and February 2021 dates are now being moved to June and July 2021, kicking off on 3rd June at Leicester’s De Montfort Theatre, with two performances in his hometown Birmingham at The Alexandra Theatre on 22nd and 23rd July and ending on 25th July at The Liverpool Empire. A full list of Frank’s rescheduled dates can be found at www.frankskinnerlive.com
Frank said, “I haven’t heard any proper applause since they stopped the NHS Thursdays. I’m desperate. Roll on June 3rd.”
In 2019, Frank sold out a 45-date national tour with Showbiz, as well as sold-out runs at London’s Leicester Square Theatre and the Edinburgh Fringe. In April of this year, Frank launched the critically acclaimed Frank Skinner’s Poetry Podcast with a second series starting in October, as well as releasing a book in the autumn entitled How to Enjoy Poetry. He also starred in Sky Arts critically acclaimed series Boswell & Johnson’s Scottish Road Trip following the journey undertaken by the two literary greats.
Showbiz runs from 3rd June – 25th July 2021. Tickets are available through www.frankskinnerlive.com
