Jon Richardson

Jon Richardson has announced a 2020 stand-up tour.

He'll perform new show The Knitwit between September and December.

Blurb explains: "Will the recycling be put out on the right day? Who is going to smooth over the top of the margarine? How many lights are on upstairs when everybody is downstairs? Watch Jon Richardson pretend that these aren't his foremost concerns as he leaves home on his first tour since the last one."

His promoters say: "Jon Richardson is one of the UK's finest live comedians and he is back this autumn with an all new stand-up tour - The Knitwit. Be sure to catch him as he performs at some of the country's top live venues, beginning at Chester Storyhouse on Tuesday 8th September and ending at Warwick Arts Centre on Friday 11th December."

Tickets are on sale now from Ticketmaster

More dates will be added over the coming months. Those currently confirmed are detailed below.

Richardson's last tour, the critically acclaimed Old Man, saw him tour the UK for 18 months between 2017 and 2018 and release his third, best-selling comedy DVD off the back of it.

Richardson continues as a regular on 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Cats Countdown and has hosted two series of Jon Richardson: Ultimate Worrier on Dave.

He'll next be seen alongside his wife Lucy Beaumont on Meet The Richardsons, a sitcom in which they star as exaggerated versions of themselves. The six episode series begins on Dave on 28th February.
