Russell Howard: Adventures

Precociously bursting onto the comedy scene by reaching the final of national talent search So You Think You’re Funny? after a mere five gigs, loveable ball of energy Russell Howard hasn’t slowed down since.

Rather, he’s been busy cementing his place as one of the hottest properties in stand-up. Taking over hosting duties on BBC6Music’s Sunday morning show from a certain Russell Brand has seen Russell’s boisterous, banter-filled comedy cheerfully relieve the hangover of every music-lover in the UK. Instantly popular, Russell has racked up endless appearances on BBC2’s Never Mind The Buzzcocks and Mock The Week, BBC1’s primetime stand-up showcase Live At The Apollo and televised coverage of The Brits and The British Comedy Awards.

But if you really want to see Russell’s charming, infectious ramblings in full flow, you have to catch him live. So many people have cottoned on to this that he has sold out every Edinburgh Festival show since 2004- in fact, by 2007 his entire run had sold out before the festival even started.

Now Russell Howard brings his Adventures back to Glasgow exclusively for the Magners Glasgow International Comedy Festival, following his kill-for-a-ticket appearances at The Stand Comedy Club last November.
