“Rich Hall's rapid-fire wit is so spontaneous he should leave his brain to science.” The Guardian
The runaway hit of last year's festival, Rich Hall returns to the Big Tickle with an all new show.
A master of absurdist irony while eschewing the human condition, Rich Hall has visited the Edinburgh Fringe Festival several times and performed at the major comedy clubs in Britain and across the world. He is well known in the United States for appearing and writing on The David Letterman Show - for which he won an Emmy Award. In 1998, Rich Hall created the character Otis Lee Crenshaw, a redneck jailbird from Tennessee, who has been married seven times, all to women named Brenda. A singersongwriter, Otis writes bourbon-soaked, Tom Waitsian tunes and blends this with audience
banter, producing a perfect fusion of music and comedy.
In the United States Rich Hall has appeared on The David Letterman Show and Saturday Night Live. In the UK, Rich has appeared on: Have I Got News For You, Never Mind The Buzzcocks, Friday Night with Jonathan Ross, QI and many more.
