Coming soon at The O2: Russell Brand and Eddie Izzard
By Ben Robinson on Monday, February 2nd, 2009 at 1:25 PM PST In Events, O2
So check it out – I regularly cover the events that are going on at the UK’s premium entertainment venue, The O2 (NYSE: TEF). Of late there has been a stack of stuff, from Opera to Rock to just plain kerrazzee (snowboarding inside the building)!
Today I bring you a comedy duet (actually it’s two separate acts), consisting of Russell Brand, and Eddie Izzard. In case you don’t know who these guys are, let me give you my one-line run down:
Russell Brand – in the papers frequently for liking sex a lot (and doing it apparently), and also got in a lot of trouble at the BBC recently for doing some inappropriate radio broadcasting…
Eddie Izzard – a bit of a fan of cross-dressing (more in his earlier years), and has some very out-there stories and gags – and has even done some cinema work of late…
One thing they both have in common is a vein of humour that certainly isn’t mainstream – but which can be crippingly funny!!! So if you are in the UK, can tolerate the weather outside at the moment, and fancy a big-giggle, then you could worse than check out The O2 website. Right now the tickets are on priority release, but they should be generally available quite soon…
