For the first time ever, musical supernova Jazz Emu (The Guardian's Breakout Comedy Act of 2023 and The Telegraph's Funniest Comedian of the 21st Century) will be touring the UK with his hotly anticipated brand-new show, Knight Fever, alongside his full live band, The Cosmique Perfectión in spring 2025. Following his run at the Soho Theatre & Edinburgh Festival Fringe, this tour will feature brand new songs, and an appearance from the King himself.

Knight Fever sees Jazz and The Cosmique Perfectión's dreams come true when they secure the coveted slot to perform the headline slot at The Royal Variety Show; at long last, Jazz Emu has a chance to secure his long-coveted Knighthood. But there's bad news; a series of recent criminal allegations are threatening to snatch the coveted prize from before his very, very, very eyes. Will Jazz and his Contractually-Less-Talented-Than-Him band, be able to put on a Heck Of A Show and secure a Royal Pardon? Or will Jazz's next performance be in the canteen at Wormwood Scrubs? The only way to find out is to settle in and watch the musical fever dream that is Jazz Emu: Knight Fever.

Jazz Emu: Knight Fever is at the Soho Theatre in June 2024 (3rd - 22nd), followed by the Edinburgh Fringe in August 2024. The tour dates are then as follows:
