Comedian, actor, author, and TV personality Joe Pasquale, who has been showing off on stage for more than 40 years, returns to the live arena this year with his longest comedy trek ever with The New Normal – 40 Years of Cack – Continued! Having impaled himself on the antlers of a prop Moose during his tour last year, one might have thought that Joe would be looking for a quieter life – but no, the much-loved comedian continues to ‘live on the edge’ and will be entertaining audiences across the UK from 19 April – 23 November 2024. If, like many, you have ever asked questions such as - can a vegetarian get a job as a Beefeater? If beauty is relative, why are all my relatives ugly? If an Eskimo has a house-warming party, will his igloo melt? Why is it that dead people get to ride in such posh cars? If a nudist spilt beetroot soup in his lap, would he have a stain on his character? And why don’t chicken breasts have nipples? Then this is the show for you! Joe delighted audiences in 2023 with The New Normal and he will be dragging out his favourite things for another airing and no doubt a few more, to prove that nothing has ever been really normal. Audiences are in for an extra treat this year as they will have the chance to ask the great man some questions of their own!
