TV comic Jimmy Carr has announced a third date for his tour show at Dudley Town Hall, it was revealed today.

Carr will perform at Dudley Town Hall on Saturday 14th September next year, with tickets for the new date going on sale from 10am on Friday.

The hugely popular comedian is one of the world’s most recognisable stand-ups and is the host of programmes such as 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, The Big Fat Quiz of the Year and Comedy Roast.

He is already performing two dates of his new show, called Terribly Funny, at the St James’s Road venue on Saturday May 11 next year with an early and a late show scheduled in. Now, with those shows selling so well, and only a handful of tickets left, a third date has been added for the venue. Alex Jackson, booker for Dudley Borough Halls, said:

"With only a small handful of tickets left for Jimmy's two shows at Dudley Town Hall on Sat 11 May, we're delighted to add this extra date.

"Jimmy is one of the world's most popular stand-ups - once again we'd encourage people to snap tickets up quickly to avoid disappointment.”

Tickets cost £29.50 and are available at boroughhalls.co.uk or by calling the box office on (01384) 812812. Doors open at 6.15pm, with the show starting around 7pm.

Carr is one of a number of top TV comics appearing at Dudley and Stourbridge town halls in the coming months. Others include Nish Kumar (Fri 15 Feb), Jason Manford (Sat Mar 9) and Jim Davidson (Fri Oct 25).
