Red Riding Hood
Add more theatre to the year…I’m over the moon to announce that I’ll be playing Granny Hood (the Dame) in my first ever panto at the legendary Theatre Royal Stratford East in Newham. The Theatre Royal panto is one of the oldest, most established and hilariously fun pantos in the UK. Red Riding Hood runs from November 27th to Dec 31st. Way too much fun for the whole family.

The Delivery Room @ Camden Comedy Club
As the founder of the legendary new material night Old Rope, I’m so pleased to be bringing back a fresher, younger, more unpredictable new material night, The Delivery Room.
Originally housed in the basement bunker at The Tap Room in Islington, this weekly showcase of new material has moved to the Camden Comedy Club at The Camden Head On Camden High road. Now, presented in association with StripLight Productions we are running monthly shows on the first Sunday of the Month.
With my new co-host, the fantastic Chloe Petts, we have a wonderful mix of veterans, TV names and the best newcomers in the business trying their new material and having a blast. Only £5 a ticket it’s a must see show!
PHIL NICHOL: YOUR WRONG
Hey there guys, gals, people, friends, friendly friends of friends!
I don’t send these updates out very often. In fact, this might be the first one. Hurrah!
Exciting news. I’m going on a solo tour tour for the first time in 10 years with my brand new show YOUR WRONG… here’s what to expect!
Trump. Your wrong. Brexit. Your wrong. Facebook. Your wrong. Tinder. Your wrong. Religion. Your wrong. Fashion. Your wrong. Grammar. YOUR WRONG.
At 19 years of age my big brother Andrew had a severe car accident that left him in a coma for 5 weeks. This is the story of the faith, the family, the pain, the love, and the reality of the limits in medical science for the Nichol family.
We are being watched. Whether it’s the grammar nazi’s on the internet, the court of public opinion in the media, the government through our smart phones, the aliens from deep in the crust of the moons of Jupiter, or by God himself, we are being monitored. The pressure to ‘get it right’ is tremendous! RIGHT?
This show questions the nature of understanding and explores our modern day need to be 100% right about everything even it means regurgitating misinformation, believing the unbelievable or just plain lying.
I’ve have made some big mistakes and so have you. Not coming to this show would be another one for both of us.

The show was the 2nd best rated show of the Edinburgh Fringe 2017.
Here’s what the critics said –
“…a show that makes you laugh and think while you are watching, and then wakes you up in the night to laugh and think again.” The Scotsman *****
“… not just comedy but soul-quenching storytelling at its finest.” EdFestMag *****
“Masterful” The Herald ****
