As seen on Live At The Apollo, Mock The Week, The Mash Report, How The Middle Class Ruined Britain and Question Time.
Winner of Best Comedy at the BBC Radio & Music Awards.
Biggest UK Tour to date - EXTENDED!

Sets himself apart from the liberal commentariat with a sharp, self-knowing wit.

Geoff Norcott's acclaimed Taking Liberties tour has been doubled in size, with 25 new dates added in 2020. "There's been a lot of talk about extensions", says Geoff, "well, despite my political allegiances I'm delighted with this one. It's time the people were given another say...on whether or not they want to see my show."

Beyond left/right party politics and Brexit, Geoff Norcott has realised the main thing that motivates his political persuasion is that he hates being told what to do. Whether it's Eurocrats, ministers, cultural icons or his wife of 15 years, Geoff just can't stand anyone having power over him.

It's a bad time to feel this way. With rising 'Nanny State' legislations coming from a supposedly right-wing government and ever greater controls on food, lifestyle and language choices, 'Taking Liberties' is both a statement on what Geoff fears is happening and his intent to playfully push the envelope.

He's a class act with a mature, sharp take on modern politics.

Other than Live At The Apollo, The Mash Report and Mock the Week, Geoff's also appeared frequently on Question Time and can be regularly seen putting the cat amongst the pigeons on UK political debate shows, including All Out Politics, This Week, Daily Politics and Politics Live. In July this year, Geoff's BBC Two documentary How The Middle Class Ruined Britain aired to great acclaim – receiving a 5-star review in the Financial Times and a TV pick in: The Guardian, The Independent, the i newspaper, The Observer, The Times, The Telegraph, The Express, the Daily Mail and the Daily Star. The documentary was also featured on BBC Breakfast.

An absolute tonic.

Objectively funny regardless of your political leaning.

A right laugh...from the hitherto little-known loveable end of the conservative spectrum.

A comedian with a big future.

A refreshingly brilliant comedic voice.

Master of anecdotal story-telling.

He moves seamlessly from one gag to the next, and there's never a dull moment.

Genuinely has something original to say.

An equal opportunities satirist.

Repeatedly and satirically incisive.

By comedy standards, Norcott is an out and out rebel.

These are sharp, topical gags; while some of his other his punchlines are funny precisely because they contain an unfashionable opinion.

Norcott delivers a brilliantly funny, tight hour of gags…dialling up the working class angst.

Happily, he is very funny.

Gently abrasive, but that's what makes him so entertaining.
