To celebrate its 25th anniversary, BBC Radio 4’s legendary, multi-award-winning topical satire show Dead Ringers is hitting the road with a UK tour making a stop in Leicester.

Featuring much-loved long-standing cast members Jon Culshaw, Jan Ravens, Lewis Macleod and Duncan Wisbey, the live show promises a hilarious journey through a quarter century of classic sketches, uncanny impressions, and the cutting-edge political and cultural satire that defined the series.

The team comes to Leicester on March 11 when they will be playing De Montfort Hall.

The tour will be a tribute to Dead Ringers creator and producer Bill Dare, who passed away suddenly in March. Bill was a legendary figure in radio & TV comedy having also been behind such classic series as The Now Show, Spitting Image and The Mary Whitehouse Experience among many others, and the entire team is honoured to have the opportunity to celebrate his work in this way.

Promotion literature for the tour said: “Audiences can expect the trademark Dead Ringers mix of wit, mischief, and the sharpest impressions in the business, all delivered live by the show’s masterful cast.”
