Rhod Gilbert announces 2009 national tour, culminating at the Wales Millennium Centre
November 18, 2008 – 9:07 pm | by Peekay
The multi award-winning Welsh Misery is back for a further national tour with his if.comedy nominated show. Following a sell-out hit run at the Edinburgh Festival with extra dates added due to overwhelming public demand, Rhod brings his critically acclaimed show around the UK culminating with a final gig at the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff.
‘Rhod Gilbert & The Award-Winning Mince Pie’ begins in a service station, at about 2.40am. Armed with a travel pillow, a flask and a very powerful torch, Rhod aggressively demands to know more about the ‘Award-Winning Mince Pie’ on display on the counter. Suddenly aware of what he is doing, he is forced to acknowledge that he may be having a very mild nervous breakdown. How did it come to this? He doesn’t even like Mince Pies. The pressures of living in a tedious, pointless and absurd world surrounded by idiots have finally taken their toll. Perhaps he should never have left his fantasy world of Llanbobl in the first place. This is the slightly ridiculous story of how one Mince Pie broke the camel’s back.
The 2009 tour starts in Doncaster, Darlington and Salford in mid January, and ends on 29th March at Cardiff’s Millennium Centre.
