COMEDIAN Milton Jones is getting back on the road with a new tour heading to Salisbury.
The star of Mock The Week (BBC Two), BBC Radio 4 and Live at the Apollo (BBC One) is at City Hall, Salisbury with Milton: Impossible next year.
The tour will take in 49 dates across the UK in 2020, beginning at Dorking Halls on January 23.
Milton says: “My latest show is called Milton: Impossible and is loosely based on a Tom Cruise film I saw once called something like Undo-able Task. In it I play a Milton who appears to just have a job in Asda, but at night he’s also an international spy involved in secret things and quite bad situations.
“In a world where shopping trolleys collide, one man can bring everything together - all he needs is some pound coins. But if daft jokes give you an allergic reaction and send you into a coma, then don’t come running to me. Also, at a difficult time for our country, I believe there’s a chance this show could unite the nation. Admittedly quite a small chance.”
Milton has co-written and performed in eleven of his own radio series for BBC Radio 4 and in 2012 Another Case of Milton Jones won the Silver Sony Award for Best Comedy.
He won the Perrier Best Newcomer Award, is the winner of two Sony Awards, a Writers Guild Award nominee and his radio show Very World of Milton Jones was nominated for a British Comedy Award.
Tickets are now on sale for the City Hall show on April 5, 2020. For more information go to cityhallsalisbury.co.uk, call 01722 434434 or email tickets@wiltshire.gov.uk
