Stand-up show 'Chop Logic' by Rhys James, the Mock The Week star, on his 2027 tour at Hull Truck Theatre.
Rhys James brings his new stand-up show Chop Logic to Hull Truck Theatre on Wednesday 28 April 2027. It's one stop on a 2027 tour that takes in 24 venues, so the Hull date is part of a wider run rather than a one-off. The show is billed as a fast, forensic hour of big ideas and gag-dense overthinking, which gives you a fair sense of the tone: it's not just a string of jokes, but a proper hour-long set built around the kind of over-analysing that earns the title.
If you haven't come across his work before, James is a stand-up and TV personality who's spent a good few years in the public eye. He's the star of TLC's Mock The Week and BBC Radio 4's Rhysearch, and has appeared on QI and Live At The Apollo. He also gave the viral U&Dave lecture I Stalk Strangers Online, which probably tells you something about the kind of curiosity he brings to his comedy. The critics have been generous, too: Richard Osman called him one of the funniest men in the world, and The Times described his work as scintillating stand-up.
He's represented by Off The Kerb Productions, and Chop Logic is the latest thing he's taking on the road. The show runs for an hour, and the Hull date falls on a Wednesday night, so it's a mid-week one rather than a weekend slot. It's a 16+ show with strong language, so it's not one for the younger crowd.
