Richard Herring - May News

Hello all
Sorry ladies, gay men and straight men and lesbians who still wanted to marry me - I am now married. The wedding day was really joyful and wonderful and so far being hitched has been plain sailing. In fact, it's pimpsy.

Here's what's going on in May and beyond.

WHAT IS LOVE, ANYWAY? TOUR
The tour has been my most successful yet, so thanks very much if you came along.
There are only three more chances to see What is Love, Anyway live
6th May Machynlleth Comedy Festival - The Tabernacle - http://www.tickettailor.com/checkout/view-event/id/2328/chk/03cd
15th and 16th May The Bloomsbury Theatre LONDON - http://www.thebloomsbury.com/event/run/1678

If you can't make it, don't worry, we filmed the show last month and it will be released by Go Faster Stripe in the next few months.

RICHARD HERRING'S LEICESTER SQUARE THEATRE PODCAST
I have got some amazing guests joining me for this London based version of my chat show podcast. It's only £12.50 if you want to see these shows live - and there will be chances to interact, prizes and extra content not broadcast online -
The dates and guests are as follows
7th May Tim Minchin (SOLD OUT)
14th May TBC
21st May Charlie Higson
28th May Charlie Brooker
11th June TBC
18th June Stewart Lee (SOLD OUT)
25th June Graham Linehan

You can book tickets here - http://leicestersquaretheatre.ticketsolve.com/shows/126524253/events

But if you can't make it then you can listen to them for free at the British Comedy Guide - http://www.comedy.co.uk/podcasts/richard_herring_lst_podcast/
Or subscribe on iTunes - http://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/richard-herrings-leicester/id520831548
I am very excited about these, think they could be something very special. So do tune in.

LYRIC HAMMERSMITH COMEDY NIGHT
I am hosting my final ever Lyric Hammersmith Comedy Night on 29th April. It's a brilliant line up, Phill Jupitus, Jenny Eclair, Lucy Porter and Chris McCausland and if you quote "April" by phone on online you can get two tickets for £20, which is frankly ridiculous! This is the website - http://www.lyric.co.uk/whats-on/production/comedy-night-april/?pes=Comedy
Be nice to go out with a bang. These shows have always been great, but they haven't been selling too well, which is a shame.

SCOPE BENEFIT
On 20th May I am part of another impressive line up at the Hammersmith Apollo, all the proceeds going to SCOPE. Tim Minchin has had to drop out due to getting a part in a US TV show, but Al Murray, Ben Elton, Francesca Martinez, Milton Jones and many more will be taking part. Sally Phillips will also be reprising the "Girl who smelled of spam". It's selling fast, so get tickets here - http://venues.meanfiddler.com/apollo/full-listings/featured/6596

DULWICH FESTIVAL
I will be doing a set at the Dulwich Festival on 19th May - details here - http://dulwichfestival.co.uk/node/326

TALKING C*CK QUESTIONNAIRE
For my forthcoming Edinburgh show and answer to the Va-gina Monologues I am setting up another anonymous pen-is based questionnaire - there are questions for men and for women and the more people who take part the better - so let me know your answers and spread the word
The men's questionnaire is here - http://www.richardherring.com/talkingcock2/questionnaire/male
The women's questionnaire is here - http://www.richardherring.com/talkingcock2/questionnaire/female

TALKING C*CK PROGRAMME
Thanks to the very generous people who have already donated money in return for getting their name in the charity programme. If you donate at least £15 (the more you give, the bigger your name) before June 1st, you can join them, then email me your address and you'll be sent a limited edition signed programme as soon as they are ready (and I have time to make them). http://www.justgiving.com/talkingcock
If you know a business that would like to advertise in the programme then please tell them to get in touch with me herring1967@googlemail.com for very reasonable rates. The money goes to SCOPE.

TALKING C*CK PREVIEWS
You will get a chance to see increasingly less rough versions of the Edinburgh show over the next couple of months. Keep an eye on the gig guide on my website for details.

JOURNALISM

Apologies for the information overload - but it's made me realise how much I've got to do, so I'd better hop it. Have a lovely weekend and month of May.
