Comedy legend Bill Bailey is coming back to Gloucestershire in 2025, with The Roses Theatre revealing exclusively to SoGlos that he'll be in Tewkesbury for a week-long residency this summer.
Bill was last at The Roses Theatre back in September 2023 for a run of eight sell-out shows debuting brand-new material.
This time around, he's performing a whopping 14 shows in seven days from Monday 11 to Sunday 17 August 2025, bringing even more brand-new material to the stage for the first time in what promises to be one of the theatre's highlights of the summer season.
His Roses residency, which is aptly named Bill Bailey's Work in Progress, gives audiences the chance to watch Bill develop his new material live, as well as enjoying his musical virtuosity, quick wit and surreal chat in an intimate theatre environment.
As well as being one of Britain's most acclaimed stand-up comedians, Bill has starred in iconic British comedy series Black Books and appeared as a regular panellist on shows including Never Mind The Buzzcocks, Have I Got News For You and QI.
The Roses Theatre's director, Jessica Brewster, said: 'It’s always a joy to welcome Bill to The Roses. His generosity on stage, his ability to connect with the audience and his wildly inventive comedy make every night feel like a one-off experience.'
Tickets for Bill Bailey's Work in Progress at The Roses Theatre go on sale on Thursday 17 April 2025 and cost £28.50 each.
