Jimmy Carr has added an extra date at the Alban Arena

TICKETS to see comedian Jimmy Carr live at the Alban Arena are selling so fast an extra date has been arranged for later in the year.

The ‘moon-face’ funnyman and host of Channel 4 quiz show 8 Out of 10 Cats will be bringing his Laughter Therapy tour to the St Albans theatre for two shows on Saturday, March 5.

However, those two performances are almost sold out, so the deadpan Have I Got News for You and QI guest has just confirmed a new date.

One of the nation’s best-loved observational stand-ups – and co-presenter of new Channel 4 satirical current affairs show 10 O’Clock Live, which starts tomorrow (Thursday) – he will now also be performing at the Alban Arena on Wednesday, August 3, at 8pm.

So book your favourite seats quickly, as the March date has very limited availability. Tickets cost £25 and are available from the Arena box office on 01727 844488 or go to the venue’s website, click on the link above.
