Steve Hewlett to embark on new ventriloquism tour
- Ventriloquist Steve Hewlett will tour his new show VentriloQuest between March and August 2023
- The theatre show will feature his characters Rod Vegas, Pongo, Tiny Tina and Arthur Lager
Steve Hewlett, who is celebrating 25 years as a professional ventriloquist, is set to undertake his third theatre tour this March to August.
VentriloQuest will feature his characters Rod Vegas (the blues star just out of rehab), Pongo (the cheeky skunk), Tiny Tina (the 36 year-old 6 year-old), Arthur Lager (Steve's right hand man) and "some surprises on the day".
The promoters say: "One half of this show will bring much laughter and visual delight in the form of ventriloquism and humour as you get to know Steve and his many friends and the other half is dedicated to Arthur Lager where you will meet him throughout different stages of his life.
"Fresh, original, funny and informative these two shows will invite you in to the world of comedy ventriloquism once known as a 'dying art'... Well, it's not if Steve Hewlett has anything to do with it."
They add: "Steve is one of the rare and pure British ventriloquists touring UK theatres so don't miss out on this one off few hours of entertainment."
