Udderbelly @ Southbank 2010
Tuesday, 09 March 2010
Udderbelly's 2010 season at London's Southbank has been announced and the line-up has some gems. American comic Rob Schneider, veteran of Saturday Night Live, will be the main overseas draw and The Wire fans will be rushing to An Evening With Clarke Peters. Irish comic Tommy Tiernan makes a rare UK appearance, while Sandi Toksvig returns to stand-up after a long absence and Alexei Sayle is doing a book reading and Q&A. Others appearing in the upturned purple cow are Ardal O'Hanlon, Alun Cochrane and Jack Whitehall.
Last year's launch season was a hit with comedy fans, as Udderbelly @ Southbank transported a bit of Edinburgh Fringe magic to its temporary Thames-side home, with several shows each evening and a large open-air bar and food area in front of the venue.
Udderbelly @ Southbank 13 May-18 July. Book here
