Fans of the iconic TV programme The Fast Show are in for a real treat as the original cast members - Simon Day, Charlie Higson, John Thomson, Paul Whitehouse, Mark Williams and Arabella Weir - bring their comedic genius to theatres across the country this spring.

It has been thirty years since viewers got their first glimpse of such iconic characters as Suits You Sir, Ted and Ralph, Does My Bum Look Big In This, Competitive Dad and so many more.

Now, to celebrate this anniversary, The Fast Show team are taking to the stage to give audiences a unique behind-the-scenes insight, telling you how they came up with the characters and the catchphrases and recreating some of your favourite moments - without the need for old age make up!

The tour is not just a performance; it's a celebration of the enduring appeal of The Fast Show and the laughter it has brought into the lives of millions.

"Get ready to laugh, sing, reminisce, and create new memories. 'I'll get me coat'..."
