Meet Tom Allen, the sharpest knife in Britain's comedy drawer

For over a decade, Tom Allen has been one of the sharpest wits in British comedy, causing thousands of audience members, television viewers and readers to laugh until their sides hurt.

From National Youth Theatre to sold-out tours

Comedian Tom Allen grew up in Bromley and honed his acting skills at the National Youth Theatre, before realising that stand-up comedy was his true calling. Although he has made some film and television appearances over the years - film credits include 'Tamara Drewe' and 'Starter for Ten' - he has been a firm fixture on the comedy circuit since 2005, when at the age of 22 he won the 'So You Think You're Funny' award, which honours comedy newcomers. Tom Allen's stand up style is bold, even outrageous, and full of sharp one-liners, acerbic commentary and riotous storytelling that is underlined by his snappily dressed, over-the-top camp persona. A regular at the Edinburgh Festival, you may also have seen Tom Allen on panel shows such as 'Mock the Week' and '8 Out of 10 Cats', not to mention 'The Great British Bake Off: An Extra Slice'. It is live, however, that this quick-witted comedic talent is at his very best, something that the phenomenal success of his shows has proved again and again. Make sure you're in the audience as he tours near you: you'll find tickets for Tom Allen performing at numerous venues across the country.

Sidesplitting laughter on Tom Allen's tour

In his stand up, Tom Allen has come a long way from the young man he was - he now talks openly about being gay in his shows, which has been well received by audiences as well as other comedians. On tour he has supported colleagues such as Josh Widdicombe, Michael McIntyre and Sarah Millican on her 2016 tour of the UK and Australia, and regularly co-hosts podcast 'Like Minded Friends' along with Suzi Ruffell. The first solo Tom Allen tour saw his new show 'Absolutely', which had opened at the Edinburgh Festival, enjoy a wildly successful run at venues around the UK and receive an extension of an additional 150 dates. Critically acclaimed for his unique style of scathingly honest comedy, Tom Allen stands out brightly in a pool of great talent. So whether you've watched him before or this is your first encounter, all comedy lovers need to take this chance to buy or sell Tom Allen tickets on StubHub.
