Mark Steel’s In Town
Visiting Company
Following his highly acclaimed, Sony Award winning and Writers Guild Award winning Radio 4 comedy show Mark Steel’s In Town, and the publication of a book of the same title, writer and stand-up comedian Mark Steel is back on the road - part of the Glasgow International Comedy Festival.
Bringing an element of Mark Steel’s In Town to each live performance, means Mark will write material shedding light on the quirkiness and interesting aspects of every town and city he visits, allowing each show to be unique - something local audiences up and down the country will devour and enjoy. Mark is committed to performing a routine about the history of every town he’ll perform in. However, he may regret making this promise!
As well as Mark Steel’s In Town, Mark has presented the BAFTA nominated Mark Steel Lectures for BBC2, is a regular on BBC One’s Have I Got News For You and Radio 4’s Newsquiz. He’s written several, acclaimed books, including: Reasons To Be Cheerful and What’s Going On and he writes a weekly column for The Independent.

I thought The Day And The Death Of Joe Egg was very good and intresting. What I liked most about it was how they acted out how they felt about there child. I thought the way they acted was very beleveabl.

A stunningly good play, there were laughs and real tears. Fabulous acting, and a great script, what a night. The audience was, in fact , left stunned at the end, the silence was palpible. I dont think the cast realized how we were affected, even the applause , and i know this will sound odd, was silent, no chatter, no breathing. Loved every minute.

Wed 9 Nov: Just back from the Citz. Chatted with the couple behind me at the interval who'd seen the 1967 Citizen's production - very interesting to hear comparisons/differences. Chatted with the cast (minus Miriam and 'Joe') in the bar after tonight's performance - great bunch of people. What a remarkable script and just as shocking now as it was then. Beautifully directed and acted wonderfully by the entire ensemble. I wish I had seen it earlier in the run so I could go and see it again!
