Jonathan Pie brings his new live show, 'The End of The World according to Jonathan Pie', touring the UK and satirising the current political climate.
Jonathan Pie is coming to Vaillant Live on Thursday 19 November, as part of his new live show touring the UK. He's billed as the UK's angriest news reporter, and the set is built around that persona: the news-desk rant taken on stage.
It's a political show, and the material is very much of the moment. Pie spends the hour working through the current political climate, with a good chunk of it focused on Keir Starmer's Labour government and the particular horror of having voted for it. Around that, he pulls in the rest of the noise: Reform, Elon Musk, the far-right, Trump, and the 'woke left' all loom in the background. He frames the whole thing as a helpful and hilarious guide to surviving the impending apocalypse, which he's titled The End of The World according to Jonathan Pie.
If you've seen him before, you'll know the format — the news-desk delivery, the mounting frustration, the sharp turn on the political class. This is new material, so it's a fresh take on the same target. It's an hour of political satire that doesn't hold back, and it's touring the UK, with this being the Derby date.

Practical bits: it's at Vaillant Live, 2 Colyear Street, Derby DE1 1LA, on Thursday 19 November, starting at 7.30 pm. One thing to keep in mind about the venue is that Level 2 is accessible by lift, but the upper tier requires climbing stairs without a handrail, so if that's a factor for you, it's worth knowing before you book.
