Live Comedy
Spencer Jones
The professional idiot and star of BBC's The Mind Of Herbert Clunkerdunk and Mister Winner is coming to you on tour with his irresistible slice of prop-based tomfoolery, inimitable visual gags and nonsensical loop-based musical comedy. Do you remember my mum?
On touring the UK for the first time, Spencer said: "I have never toured before. Finally, she is letting me out of the house! Only joking, she's glad to get rid of me, and by her, I mean my dog Mya. She'll get to hang out with my partner on her own without me complaining about her terrible breath, the dog's breath. She has bad breath. Not my partner. No problems there.
"The show is in two parts. The first half of the show will be all the best bits from my previous five shows jammed together like a pilled up DJ's playlist. But instead of dancing you'll be laughing. Dance if you want though, I'm not the fun police. And the second half of the show is the story of what happened and how I lost my mind moving to Devon. Two very different halves of comedy, but I am in both. Like glue, sticky and difficult to wash off. If you don't book a ticket you are quite frankly missing out and I will be gutted. For you. Not for me. I'll be fine."
Having moved house with his family to Devon during lockdown, Spencer thought he'd cracked it - a bigger house, a nice workshop for his props, and a six minute drive to the beach (if he drives like a prick). But what about mates? Could a bloke he meets painting some railings be his 'soulmate'? And how is he supposed to make mates when he's dealing with a very angry cockerel?
Join Spencer as he digs into a selection of choice cuts from his six rapturously received live shows: Making Friends (2023), The Things We Leave Behind (2019), The Audition (2017), The Herbert In Eggy Bagel (2016), The Herbert In Proper Job (2015) and Spencer Jones Is The Herbert (2014).
