Kathy Maniura Takes The Cycling Man On the Road

Kathy Maniura Takes The Cycling Man On the Road

Award-winning comedian & drag king Kathy Maniura is taking her hit character comedy show The Cycling Man on tour across the UK.

Middle-aged and newly single, The Cycling Man has spent the salary of an NHS nurse in Decathlon and is on the verge of a breakdown. Get to know this absurd and deeply flawed man as he gets to know himself — in a delightfully goofy drag king show full of heart, humour, and Lycra.

Directed by Cecily NashThe Cycling Man follows Maniura’s success as BBC New Comedian shortlisted (2023) and Sketch Off winner (2020), cementing her reputation as one of the UK’s most inventive comedy performers. 

Named one of Attitude Magazine’s 15 Best LGBTQ+ Shows at the Edinburgh FringeThe Cycling Man is a hilarious and heartfelt exploration of identity, masculinity, and midlife crisis — all on two wheels.
