STAND-UP comedian Susan Calman is coming to Salisbury for one night only.

To celebrate her 10th year in comedy she has a new show, The Calman Before the Storm, which is at Salisbury Playhouse on Tuesday (June 27), 7.30pm.

Having worked on Death Row and at the United Nations in Geneva as a former corporate lawyer, Susan decided to give up her promising career to become a comedian in 2006 when she reached the semi-finals of the BBC New Comedy and So You Think You’re Funny Awards. In 2007 she was part of sell-out Fringe show Ugly Kid which went on to become Channel 4’s Blowout and whose cast was awarded a Scottish BAFTA that same year.

Calman has also made TV appearances on Have I Got News for You, QI, Mock the Week, Go 8 Bit, Countryfile, The One Show, Pointless Celebrities, Alan Davies As Yet Untitled, Dara O’Briain’s School of Hard Sums, 8 Out of 10 Cats, Would I Lie To You and Comedy at the Fringe.

She also hosts a daytime quiz show for BBC 1 called The Boss which started airing in April 2017 as well as a quiz show for CBBC called Top Class.

On Radio 4 Susan has appeared on The News Quiz, The Unbelievable Truth, Now Show, Dilemma, So Wrong it’s Right and presented Woman’s Hour and Listomania. She recently recorded the second series of her sitcom Sisters for Radio 4 and has also started work on her fourth solo series for the station.
