Mark Thomas: 40 In Stand-Up Years

Mark Thomas brings his milestone tour to Leeds, celebrating four decades of politically charged stand-up. Known for his sharp wit and anarchic spirit, Thomas has spent 40 years blending comedy with activism, famously using his Channel 4 show *The Mark Thomas Comedy Product* to expose corporate and political hypocrisy.

Expect an evening of incisive storytelling and audience interaction, as Thomas reflects on his career from early days on *The Mary Whitehouse Experience* to his legendary stunts like the 'National Soames Day' campaign. His shows are part stand-up, part rally—a unique mix of laughter and provocation that has made him a defining voice in British comedy.

Thomas's ability to find humor in the darkest corners of politics ensures a night that is both entertaining and thought-provoking.
