About This Event

Mark Simmons made his name with crisp, clean one-liners on Mock the Week, BT Sport and ITV, and his debut tour ran to more than 200 dates across the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand. Jest to Impress is a new hour of tightly written gags mixed with off-the-cuff jokes built from audience suggestions. Simmons also hosts the podcast Jokes With Mark Simmons, where guests such as Gary Delaney, Sarah Millican and Milton Jones talk through jokes that never quite worked.
