Punt & Dennis to tour live show We Are Not A Robot
- Punt & Dennis: We Are Not A Robot will run between April and June 2024
- It is the first live tour for The Now Show hosts in a decade
- "Audiences can expect an uproarious celebration of the duo's comedic legacy"
Steve Punt and Hugh Dennis are set to embark on a nationwide tour after a decade-long hiatus.
Talking about The Now Show stars, the promoters say: "Older but still unapologetically irreverent, Punt & Dennis are poised to take audiences on a riotous journey with their latest show, titled We Are Not A Robot.
"Having spent the past ten years dissecting the absurdities of the world through their sharp wit on programmes like Mock The Week and The Now Show, the question arises: What insights have the comedic veterans gleaned, and have they managed to craft new jokes worthy of their storied careers? According to the duo, the answer is a resounding 'yes'.
"Punt & Dennis - celebrated for their incisive observational humour, quick banter, and unforgettable sketches - are synonymous with intelligent comedy and impeccable timing. Emerging from the iconic '90s series The Mary Whitehouse Experience, the duo's first standalone TV venture, The Imaginatively-Titled Punt & Dennis Show, birthed the whimsically named The Milky Milky Tour, paying homage to a peculiar Dennis character from their earlier work.
"As they return to the stage, showcasing a medley of classic sketches, improvisation and new material, audiences can expect an uproarious celebration of the duo's comedic legacy, proving that after a decade, Punt & Dennis are still very much in a league of their own."
