Stand-up show by Ross Noble, billed as 'The Wizard of Waffle', in which he plays on the expression 'barrel of laughs'.
Ross Noble is back on stage at Milton Keynes Theatre on Sunday 7 March 2027, with his new show Cranium of Curiosities. It's presented by Mick Perrin Worldwide Ltd, and it's a stand-up comedy night for ages 15 and over.
If you've seen Noble before, you'll know the drill. He's a comedian who doesn't really do a set in the traditional sense; he's more of a rambler who follows his own train of thought wherever it decides to go. The show's description plays into that, calling it a "tornado of tangents" with subject matter left deliberately to the audience's imagination. There's no fixed script to hold onto, so the night tends to go wherever he takes it.
He's also got a few nicknames that give you a sense of the territory. He's billed as 'The Wizard of Waffle', 'The Rambler Royale' and 'The Noodlers' Noodler' — all of which point to a comic who's more interested in the detour than the destination. The show's title, Cranium of Curiosities, fits that too, like a cabinet of oddities but inside his head. He's even had a joke about the phrase 'barrel of laughs', suggesting the audience might accidentally end up trapped in one.
