Ross Noble in Manchester

At the weekend I went to see Ross Noble at the Opera House in Manchester. We had rather good seats, 3 rows from the front of the circle, which allowed us to see all the hilarity unfold. Right from the outset, you could tell we were in for a treat... a short animation with dancing characters asking people not to make a noise and ensure that their telephones were switched off.

Mr Noble started by heckling the late comers and it just got funnier and funnier from there on. Skits about 'Cheeky Cheeky Muslims' (involving pearly-queen dancing), arse-faced children being bummed in the face by baboons and much more besides had us all in stitches!

For anybody who has the opportunity to see Ross Noble live, you MUST go. I cannot recommend it enough!

I laughed so much I almost vomited! I always do when I see Ross Noble. As Ric says, you MUST see Ross Noble live - his DVD's just don't capture the atmosphere of the live event. He is the most talented stand-up I have ever seen in action - mainly because he improvises so well.
