Funny Business is Jimmy Carr’s brand new stand up show. Rude and witty – Funny Business is not for the easily offended. Jimmy will present his show in Parr Hall as part of this year’s Warrington Festival.

Jimmy Carr is never off the telly (this year saw him host the third series of 10 O’Clock Live, the fifteenth series of 8 Out of 10 Cats and special episodes of Big Fat Quiz and 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown). In fact, he’s been described as ‘the hardest working man in comedy’ but, let’s face facts, that’s not that impressive. It’s like being ‘the tallest dwarf’ or ‘the healthiest Glaswegian’.

Live comedy is what Jimmy does best. His stand-up achievements to date include a British Comedy Award for ‘Best Live Stand-Up Tour’ and a Perrier Award nomination. On stage, he’s even funnier and even more outrageous and Funny Business is his brand new stand-up show.

Over 1.5 million people have now seen Jimmy perform live and his new tour will see him play over 200 dates around the country between April 2014 and November 2015. With 4.7 million followers (at the last count) on Twitter, Jimmy Carr is one of the most popular comedians at work in the UK today. Funny Business is a chance to see Jimmy doing what he does best. This show is not suitable for under 16s.
