The story of a TV show never to be repeated is coming to a Bridport stage.
Comedian Mark Thomas will be waxing lyrical on The Mark Thomas Comedy Product at the Electric Palace on Sunday, April 3 at 7.30pm.
Before Joe Lycett, The Revolution Will be Televised, Lee Nelson, Dom Joly and Balls of Steel, The Mark Thomas Comedy Product was the show that set the agenda.
From challenging corporations, exposing corruption, ending MPs’ careers and setting up a PR company at an arms fair, Thomas’s Channel 4 show changed the law on tax and inherited wealth and happily used just about every conceivable military vehicle in the cause of comedy. It was the show that MPs prayed they didn’t appear on.
Showing his favourite clips and explaining what went on behind the scenes, Mark now tells the story in its fullest glory in this cinematic live experience of mischief, adventure, and seven years of gunning for the corrupt with a camera crew in tow.
Tickets cost £18.50 in advance. Buy tickets at www.electricpalace.org.uk
