Jimmy Carr brings his 'Killing Jokes' stand-up tour to Engine Shed in Lincoln.
Jimmy Carr is coming to Engine Shed on Wednesday 26 May 2027 with his stand-up show, Killing Jokes. It's a 7pm show, so it's one of those mid-week ones that gets you home at a decent hour rather than keeping you out until the early hours of a Thursday morning.
If you've seen him before, you know the format: Carr is one of the most recognisable names on the circuit, and Killing Jokes is his latest run. He's built his reputation on a very specific kind of comedy — sharp, fast, and leaning heavily on the crowd. He's as much about the banter and the quick-fire responses as he is about the written material, so the room usually plays a fair bit of a part in how the night goes. It's a stand-up show in the truest sense, with him alone on stage for the duration.
Having him play Engine Shed brings a big-name act to Lincoln, so it's a good one to keep on the radar if you're into comedy. It's a Wednesday night, which means you'll be heading in after work rather than on a weekend, and the 7pm start keeps it on the earlier side of things. If you're planning to make a night of it, you've got plenty of time for a drink or some food around the city before the show kicks off.
