The Fast Show will return to the stage next year, it has been confirmed.
The long-rumoured return of the 30th anniversary celebration shows An Evening With The Fast Show will take in 15 dates across the UK in November 2025. A run of performances were previously staged in spring this year.
Tickets go on sale at 10:00am this Thursday, 21st November, from TheFastShow.live.
The production sees co-creators Charlie Higson and Paul Whitehouse reunite with Simon Day, John Thomson, Arabella Weir and Mark Williams.
Promoters explain: "This celebratory UK tour will be a huge treat for fans of the multi-award-winning quick-fire TV sketch show and provide a real behind-the-scenes insight into some of their favourite characters and catchphrases as they come alive on stage once again.
"The cast will chat together about how it all began, how they made the TV show, and created the characters and the fun they had doing it. This will be interspersed with performances of some of their best-loved sketches, monologues and songs, with on-screen inserts and a moment to remember their former collaborator, the late, great Caroline Aherne.
"The tour is not just a performance; it's a celebration of the enduring appeal of The Fast Show and the laughter it has brought into the lives of millions."
Charlie Higson says: "The Fast Show was all about repetition, catchphrases and familiar characters. So we're going to repeat our last tour with the same catchphrases and characters. Hopefully audiences will believe it's all new material."
Paul Whitehouse adds: "The Fast Show back on tour again, sir? Oooooh - suit you, madam!"
