Comedian Adam Rowe set to perform stand-up show at city museum
Award-winning comedian Adam Rowe is putting on an intimate stand-up show in Stoke-on-Trent.
The edgy comedian, who is best known for hosting the ‘Have a Word’ podcast, is taking to the stage at the Potteries Museum & Art Gallery in Hanley.
The show follows the city’s first, and extremely successful, two-day Comedy Festival in May when Stoke-on-Trent City Council teamed-up with Me and Mrs Jones Comedy to bring a host of popular comedians to the city.
Since making his debut in 2010 at just 18 years old, Adam has regularly appeared at the UK’s biggest comedy clubs and festivals. He won ‘funniest joke’ at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2018 and has featured on various television shows including Live at the Apollo, Roast Battle and The Stand-up Sketch Show.
Now, straight off the back his latest sell-out tour, the Liverpool-born comedian will be entertaining crowds at the museum’s 300-seat forum theatre on Friday 1 November.
Councillor Jane Ashworth, leader of Stoke-on-Trent City Council, said: “The Comedy Festival we hosted earlier this year was incredibly successful. It was the first time we’d done anything like it before and we had some great feedback from visitors and the comedians themselves, who said they really enjoyed performing at the forum theatre.
“We host some great events at the Potteries Museum & Art Gallery all year round but we have been really keen to put another comedy night on, so I’m glad we’ve managed to secure Adam Rowe. From what I’ve seen from him he is a very relatable person so I’m sure this latest show will be really good.”
Tickets for An Evening With Adam Rowe are now available. They cost £18.50 each and are available for over 18’s only. Doors open at 6pm for a 7pm start.
