Stand-up show by Russell Howard with his tour 'Don't Tell The Algorithm', an intimate evening free from digital distractions.
Russell Howard is playing the Oval Hall at Sheffield City Hall on Sunday 8 November, with the show starting at 15:30. It's a matinee, so you'll be out in time for dinner rather than heading home in the dark.
He's touring a brand-new stand-up show called Don't Tell The Algorithm, which comes after a run of sold-out shows across the globe. The Sunday Times has called him one of the world's top comedians, and he's built his name on razor-sharp wit and a knack for working a room. If you've seen him before, you'll know the sort of thing to expect: a lot of quick-fire observations and a good bit of crowd interaction.
There's a particular rule for this one, though. The show is billed as an intimate evening free from digital distractions, and phones are switched off so the spotlight stays on the laughter and genuine human interaction. It's a bit of a departure from the usual gig, where half the room is filming bits on their phones, so you can actually settle in and listen without the screens.
