Comedian, actor, author, and TV personality Joe Pasquale, who has been showing off on stage for more than 40 years, returns to the live arena this year with his longest comedy trek ever with The New Normal – 40 Years of Cack – Continued! Having impaled himself on the antlers of a prop Moose during his tour last year, one might have thought that Joe would be looking for a quieter life – but no, the much-loved comedian continues to ‘live on the edge’ and will be entertaining audiences across the UK from 19 April – 23 November 2024.
If, like many, you have ever asked questions such as - can a vegetarian get a job as a Beefeater? If beauty is relative, why are all my relatives ugly? If an Eskimo has a house-warming party, will his igloo melt? Why is it that dead people get to ride in such posh cars? If a nudist spilt beetroot soup in his lap, would he have a stain on his character? And why don’t chicken breasts have nipples? Then this is the show for you!
Joe delighted audiences in 2023 with The New Normal and he will be dragging out his favourite things for another airing and no doubt a few more, to prove that nothing has ever been really normal. Audiences are in for an extra treat this year as they will have the chance to ask the great man some questions of their own!
Before heading out on the road with The New Normal – Joe will be sharing the stage at The Palladium on 30 March with a very special show Bradley Walsh and Friends which will see Joe perform alongside Bradley, Brian Conley and Shane Ritchie celebrating their decades- long friendship.
In recent years Joe has been wowing audiences and critics alike with his many TV appearances, the most recent of which saw Joe crowned as the winner of The Masked Singer: I’m A Celebrity Special for his performance as ‘The Dunny’! In 2018 Joe also revived the much-loved TV character, the hapless Frank Spencer with the hit theatre show Some Mother’s Do ‘Ave ‘Em, based on the 1970s TV sitcom.
Since being crowned King of the Jungle in 2004 in ITV’s I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here!, Joe has voiced characters for films like Garfield 2 and Horton Hears a Hoo and has made appearances on TV shows such as Tipping Point, Pointless Celebrities, Celebrity Chase, Tonight At the London Palladium, Total Wipeout and many more. Joe has appeared as King Arthur in the West End production of Spamalot and played Leo Bloom in the touring production of Mel Brooks’ The Producers.
Joe’s very individual comedy style has seen him remain at the top of his game for more than four decades. Admired by his peers and audiences alike, recent years have seen Joe perform sets at London’s Comedy Store and at the annual Balham Comedy Festival.
And in contrast to his ‘comedy bones’ Joe is a huge fan of the horror genre In 2018 he published his first book Deadknobs and Doomsticks a collection of horror stories. This was followed up by a second volume of spine chillers and in 2023 Joe’s most recent horror tome Of Mice And Wolfmen was published by HellBound Books. Joe is currently writing his first novel.
A bona fide ‘gym bunny’ with a six-pack to prove it, Joe has run a London Marathon, qualified as a pilot, made frequent trips across The Channel and if he ever has time – he will complete his degree with the Open University! Oh, and he’s currently fascinated by ghosts!!
