Paul Zerdin: Jaw Drop tour dates announced
- Paul Zerdin: Jaw Drop will tour the UK in autumn 2025
- The ventriloquism star is back in pantomime at the London Palladium this Christmas
- Tickets for the new tour will be on sale shortly
Award-winning comedy ventriloquist Paul Zerdin is going back on tour across the UK in autumn 2025.
His new show, Jaw Drop, promises a range of favourite characters plus "his famous human dummy routine with an exciting new twist".
Beginning in Norwich on 2nd September 2025, the comedian will perform in the Isle of Wight, Monmouth, Northampton, Basingstoke, Leeds and Bristol, amongst others, before concluding the tour on 8th November in London.
Promoters say: "Expect a night of laughter and jaw-dropping entertainment featuring the remarkable talents of ventriloquist Zerdin, with a show that brings to life his delightful cast of characters including Sam, the cocky teenager; Albert, the 96-year-old with a razor-sharp wit; and the Baby, who hilariously believes the world revolves around him. Adding to the hilarity are Paul's dim-witted American bodyguard Roger and an outrageous Urban Fox.
"This tour also marks the return of Paul's TV and radio personality character, Alasdair Rimmer, who is eager to make a comeback with Paul's help. The evening will also include his famous human dummy routine with an exciting new twist."
Paul says: "It's a shock that I'm actually going to go out on tour again with this bunch of misfits! It wasn't my idea, it was theirs! They said if I didn't go they'd clone me with AI and do the show without me. The lunatics have taken over the asylum! Sam is scheming, Albert's rapping and Baby is now an influencer. Roger, my American bodyguard, cannot get over how small the roads are in the UK and thinks the potholes are the work of aliens."
