Stand-up show 'Tall Tales' by award-winning comedian Susan Calman at The Alban Arena.
Susan Calman brings her new stand-up show Tall Tales to The Alban Arena on Thursday 25 February 2027, starting at 7:30pm. It's her first tour in ten years, and the title fits the material: the show is built from a decade of improbable situations she's found herself in, with cruising, driving tanks, cats and getting older as some of the starting points.
If you've come across her work without knowing the full run, Calman is an award-winning comedian, writer and actress, and a long-time Edinburgh Fringe favourite. Much of what she's known for is on the radio, with credits that span Radio 4: The News Quiz, The Unbelievable Truth, The Now Show, Dilemma, ISIHAC and So Wrong it's Right. She's also presented Woman's Hour and fronted her own solo radio series, Keep Calman and Carry On, which went out in spring 2016.
On television, she's a regular face on the panel show circuit, with appearances on Have I Got News for You, QI, Don't Sit In The Front Row, Comedy Rocks, Show and Tell, The Matt Lucas Awards, Dara O'Briain's School of Hard Sums, 8 Out of 10 Cats, Would I Lie To You and Mock the Week. Beyond the panels, she's hosted Grand Day Out, Cruising with Susan Calman and House of Games.
