A further 15 dates have been announced in February and March 2017 for Sue Perkins Live! in Spectacles. The show – which toured to sell-out houses in September 2016 - celebrates Sue’s Sunday Times No. 1 best-selling memoir Spectacles.
Sue said today: “Having spent the last 7 years crammed into a tellybox shouting the word BAKE, I think it’s high time I got out, and stretched my legs on the UK Stage. I loved writing Spectacles and I can’t wait to bring the all singing, all dancing* version to a town near you.”
Much loved and irrepressible, this is a rare chance to enjoy an evening with Sue packed full of sparkling wit, great stories, a user’s guide to Mary Berry and the very best bits from her hilariousbest-selling memoir Spectacles.
Sue is best known for being part of double act Mel and Sue. In 2008 she won the BBC show Maestro culminating in her conducting at The Last Night of the Proms. She has created the acclaimed travel documentary The Mekong River with Sue Perkins, hosts new shows Insert Name Here and Spelling Bee and is a regular on Have I Got News For You, Just a Minute, QI and The News Quiz … and there’s that cake show on BBC1.
