Southport Comedy Festival favourite Paul Sinha returns to the event this Saturday (9th October), asking fans: ‘Come and see me as a comedian!’
Paul has attracted an army of fans locally through his superb performances at Southport Comedy Festival over the years.
Many will know him from his starring role on ITV quiz show The Chase, but his stand-up comedy routine is very different. Making people laugh is his passion.
He is looking forward to bringing his Hazy Little Thing Called Love tour to the Festival at Victoria Park in Southport.
Since his last appearance in Southport, he has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. He has received huge public support since he announced the news.
He said: “Since 2019’s diagnosis, there has been an outpouring of kindness from the public and it is much appreciated. Many strangers have asked ‘what can we do to help?’ The most truthful answer is…..
“See me as a comedian as well as a Chaser.
“I don’t have a bucket list as such. I’ve seen places, I’ve done things. I might one day see the Iguazu Falls but my happiness is not dependent on it.
“My happiness depends on doing the things I love for as long as possible. Comedy and quizzing. And I am about to start re-touring my boldest, most ambitious and personal show.
“As long as you don’t come expecting it to be clean, wholesome entertainment about white suits, you will be pleasantly surprised.”
Scores of tickets have already been sold, with comedy-goers excited to see Paul returning for his seventh year with a bigger, longer and more ambitious version of his 2019 Southport show.
Paul is a Rose d’Or Award winner for the radio comedy, Paul Sinha’s History Revision, a Chortle Award winner and an Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee.
He’s appeared on Just A Minute, The News Quiz and Fighting Talk on radio and on Would I Lie to You?, QI and Taskmaster on television.
Thanks to his passion for quizzing, he also appears as a general knowledge expert on the much-loved ITV quiz show, The Chase.
His appearance is part of a superb weekend in Southport, which saw To Stade perform last night, with Russell Kane on stage this Sunday (10th October).
