Brace yourselves, Torquay, because one of the UK’s most fearless and original comedians is coming to town. The hilarious Simon Brodkin will headline the Torquay Comedy Club at the Arena Torquay on Saturday, August 16, 2025. This is a must-see event for fans of stand-up and anyone in need of a good laugh.
Most people know Brodkin for two things: his infamous alter ego, Lee Nelson, and his headline-grabbing stunts. As Lee Nelson, he became a household name with his BBC shows, Lee Nelson’s Well Good Show and Lee Nelson’s Well Funny People. His pranks, like handing Theresa May a P45 during a speech or showering former FIFA president Sepp Blatter with banknotes, cemented his reputation as a “comedy troublemaker.”
Now, Brodkin is back on brilliant form as himself, shedding the alter ego to deliver razor-sharp stand-up comedy. He has captivated audiences with his sold-out live shows and viral specials, proving he’s a powerhouse comedian in his own right. You may have also seen him on hit TV shows like Live at the Apollo and The John Bishop Show.
The show is set to run from 8:00 PM to 10:00 PM, with general entry tickets priced at £21.00. Whether you’re a long-time fan of his work or just discovering his unique brand of comedy, this is your chance to see a master at work. Don’t miss this opportunity to see one of the most talked-about comedians in the country live and up close. Get your tickets now before they’re all gone!
