Mark Thomas: 40 In Stand-Up Years

Mark Thomas marks four decades of stand-up with a show that blends his trademark political comedy with personal reflection. Known for his Channel 4 series *The Mark Thomas Comedy Product*, Thomas has built a career on stunts and investigations that expose corporate and political hypocrisy—once forcing a change in inheritance tax law after targeting a Conservative MP.

Attendees can expect a mix of sharp routines and audience interaction, hallmarks of a performer who describes himself as a "libertarian anarchist." The show draws on his early influences—from Dave Allen to Alexei Sayle—and his decades of experience as a fixture on the UK comedy circuit.

This Bath date is part of a tour celebrating a milestone in a career that has seen Thomas move from BBC Radio 1's *The Mary Whitehouse Experience* to his own Channel 4 series, all while maintaining a fiercely independent voice. It's a chance to see a comedian who has consistently used laughter as a tool for political engagement.
