Stand-up show by Seann Walsh, the UK's observational comedy comic, with a new hour of comedy titled 'This is Torture'.
Seann Walsh is coming to the Salisbury Playhouse on Saturday 30 January 2027, with his new show This is Torture. It's a full hour of stand-up, and the title comes from the phrase he says most in his life: 'THIS IS TORTURE'.
Walsh is back on the road after a sell-out tour in 2023, and this is a brand-new hour. He's often called 'the UK's dishevelled king of stand-up', and that's a fair way to put it — he mixes chaos and charm, trading on the high-energy exasperation and sharp observations that have made him one of the country's best. The Guardian called him 'unquestionably the best observational comic of his generation', and The Evening Standard described him as 'one of comedy's hottest properties', with similar praise coming from The Telegraph and The Independent.
He's performed across the UK and Ireland and played some of the bigger festivals, including the Brighton Comedy Festival, Just for Laughs in Montreal, and So You Think You're Funny. This tour brings that same observational style to a new set of material, so it's a fresh hour rather than a repeat of what he's done before.
