Mike Wozniak: The Bench

Mike Wozniak is back in Glasgow on Saturday 20 March 2027, bringing his new stand-up show The Bench to the Citizens Theatre. It's part of the Glasgow International Comedy Festival, so it sits alongside a whole run of other comedy across the city that month.

If you've come across him through Taskmaster, that's where most people know him from these days, but he's worked across a few different things. He's appeared on Man Down and Junior Taskmaster, and you can hear him on the Three Bean Salad podcast, so there's a fair bit of his voice and timing to go on before you see him live. The Bench is a new touring show, and it centres on a story about a bench — the kind of specific, singular thing a stand-up can build a whole hour around.

The show runs for an hour and fifty minutes, including an interval, so it's a proper full evening rather than a short set. It's recommended for ages 14 and over, which is worth keeping in mind if you're thinking of bringing anyone younger. And there's a nice bit of local context to it: £2 from every ticket goes towards the running of the Citizens Theatre, so a small part of the price stays with the venue itself.

Doors open at 7pm, with the show starting at 8pm. Tickets are £24.50, with concessions starting from £5, and you'll find the Citizens Theatre at 119 Gorbals Street in the South Side, G5 9DS.
