Alistair Barrie: The InternationAL Theatre & Performing Arts

One of the UK's leading topical comics, Comedy Store and BBC Breaking the News regular Alistair Barrie brings his new show to The Bill Murra

‘Properly smart comedy for grown ups. By a properly smart comic.’ ★★★★ The Scotsman.

‘Eloquent, slick and dynamic, his hour positively flies by in a blur of opinions, flippancy and indignity.’ ★★★★ Chortle.co.uk

‘Barrie’s analytical nous and store of snappy gags mark him out…Excellent.’ The Independent

‘A casually sardonic sense of humour… sharp as a guillotine blade.’ Cape Town Argus

The UK’s Alistair Barrie has been headlining shows across the globe for over 15 years. A frequent performer at London’s world famous Comedy Store, he is also a core member of their topical ‘Cutting Edge’ team and a regular panelist on the BBC’s award-winning ‘Breaking the News.’ He has twice been nominated for ‘Best Show’ at the Edinburgh Festival where he also appeared in the hit plays ‘Breaker Morant’ with Adam Hills and Rhys Darby and ‘Coalition’ with Phill Jupitus. He has hosted the main arena at The Cape Town Comedy Festival and is a regular at Glastonbury, Bestival and the Green Man Festival amongst many others.

‘The InternationAL’ is the follow-up to ‘No More Stage Three’, taking a look at life after it’s been threatened, which now seems mostly to be the job of the President of the United States. Recent events have given this highly topical globe-trotting comedian (Alistair, not Donald,) plenty of ammunition. However THIS TIME IT’S PERSONAL, for reasons which will become clear. It should also be a lot more more entertaining than Jaws IV, from which he has shamelessly pilfered that strapline.
