Multi-award-winning comic genius (The Scotsman) and new star of Taskmaster (Ch4), Phil Ellis is heading out on his first full national stand-up tour.
Following his three big award wins at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe, Phil, the very definition of funny bones, presents his brand-new show ‘Bath Mat’.
Jam-packed with laugh-out-loud silliness, razor-sharp gags and constant surprises, this show promises an evening of comedy at its finest.
★★★★★ The Mirror
"Every moment he is on stage something funny, and then funnier, is happening." ★★★★★ The Scotsman
"The density of gags is impressive... Ellis in his prime." ★★★★½ Chortle
Spaces are limited and tickets are expected to sell fast – don’t miss your chance to see one of comedy’s brightest stars live!
