Stand-up show 'Kid Giblet' by Australian comedian Sam Campbell at the Hexagon Theatre in Reading.
Sam Campbell plays the Hexagon Theatre on Tuesday 17 November, bringing his stand-up to Reading. If you've come across him on the panel show circuit, this is a chance to see him hold the room on his own.
Campbell is an Australian comedian and actor whose style mixes absurdist loops with sharp observational wit — a sensibility he first worked out in surreal YouTube shorts and later took to TV and podcasts. He's picked up some serious industry recognition along the way, winning the Barry Award for Most Outstanding Show at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in 2018 and the Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Show in 2022. He also conquered Taskmaster Series 16 in 2023, which is where a lot of people will recognise him from.
Beyond that, he's a regular on the panel show circuit, with appearances on Would I Lie to You?, Never Mind The Buzzcocks, 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Guessable, The Russell Howard Hour and QI. He writes and performs on Channel 4's Get Real Dude and the cult series Don't Hug Me I'm Scared, and co-hosts the podcast Lucy & Sam's Perfect Brains with Lucy Beaumont. His debut Channel 4 series, Make That Movie!, was set for release in 2026.
