This autumn Greg Davies, star of BAFTA-winning TV series and hit film The Inbetweeners, is to embark on a brand new national stand-up tour - The Back of My Mum’s Head.
Beginning 3rd October, the 47-date tour will see Greg play venues nationwide until 13th December including the Hammersmith Apollo on the 17th November. Tickets are on general sale from today.
Greg’s critically acclaimed, sell-out debut solo show Firing Cheeseballs At A Dog was nominated for the Edinburgh Comedy Award in 2010 and extended three times, taking the total number of dates up to a huge 115 shows.
The show was subsequently released on DVD and Blu-ray in November 2011 by Universal Pictures (UK) Ltd entering the top 10 in the comedy DVD chart and has been nominated for Best DVD in the 2012 Chortle Awards.
Best known for his role as head of sixth form Mr. Gilbert, in The Inbetweeners (Channel 4) which he reprised last year in The Inbetweeners film (the highest grossing British comedy film of all time), Greg has performed on Live at the Apollo (BBC One), headlined Dave’s One Night Stand (Dave), been a regular team captain on two series of Ask Rhod Gilbert (BBC One), hosted Never Mind The Buzzcocks (BBC Two) and appeared on the The Royal Variety Performance 2011 (ITV1).
Further TV appearances include Have I Got News for You (BBC One), Would I Lie To You? (BBC ONE), 8 Out Of 10 Cats (Channel 4), Frank Skinner’s Opinionated (BBC Two), Mock The Week (BBC Two), The Graham Norton Show (BBC One) and driving through Nepal alongside Rhod Gilbert in World’s Most Dangerous Roads (BBC Two). Last year Greg was nominated for Best Comedy Breakthrough Artist at the British Comedy Awards and The Times Breakthrough Award at the South Bank Show Awards.
Greg was also one third of Edinburgh Comedy Award 2006 and Barry Award 2007 nominated sketch group We Are Klang, with fellow comedians Steve Hall and Marek Larwood.
The trio have performed four critically-acclaimed sell-out Edinburgh shows and made their eponymous debut sit-com series of the same name and one off entertainment special for BBC THREE in 2010.
