Phill’s ‘Juplicity’ show
COMEDIAN and TV/radio presenter Phill Jupitus is set to bring his new stand-up comedy show ‘Juplicity’ to Shetland as part of a UK national tour next summer.
Jupitus – perhaps best known for his long-term team captaincy on BBC2 music quiz show Never Mind the Buzzcocks – will play Mareel on Saturday 22 July.
The aim of the show is to create laughs out of “the chaos of his own life and the uncertain world that surrounds it”.
In addition to his stand-up career and 19-year run on Never Mind the Buzzcocks, he also appears as a regular guest on panel shows such as QI (BBC2), while on radio he is a regular panellist on the award-winning I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue (BBC Radio 4), was BBC6 Music’s breakfast show presenter for five years and also filled in for Steve Wright on his BBC Radio 2 afternoon show.
Earlier this year Jupitus toured the UK and Ireland with the musical Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, starring as Baron Bomburst and Lord Scrumptious, while last August he also played Bottom in the Bath Theatre Royal production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.
- Tickets for his Lerwick show – promoted by Off the Kerb Production and Beyond Presents – are on sale now through Shetland Arts Box Office in Mareel priced £16.
