Award-winning comedian Dave Spikey arrives at Glee Club Birmingham on Wed 29 Feb

Dave Spikey

Double British Comedy Award winner Dave Spikey returns to the stage in 2012 with a date at Birmingham’s Glee Club.

Spikey, who recently scooped an audience award at the inaugural COFILMIC Festival for his 10 minute short Buzz Dish, brings his critically acclaimed Words Don’t Come Easy tour to the City Centre venue on Wednesday 29 February.

As anyone who has ever seen Dave live or read his best-selling autobiography Under the Microscope will know, words come very easily to this hugely popular comedian.

Inspired by the audience response to his deconstruction of song lyrics on the 2008/09 Best Medicine tour, and his fascination with the vagaries of the English language, this show examines many of life’s situations where words really don’t come easy.

Since winning the nation’s hearts as cabaret star Jerry St. Clair in Phoenix Nights, which he co-wrote with Peter Kay and Neil Fitzmaurice, Dave has been a regular on TV as well as in theatres and comedy clubs around the UK.

Aside from Phoenix Nights, Dave also wrote and starred in Dead Man Weds and Magnolia, hosted the new series of the TV classic Bullseye and is currently one of the regular hosts of The TV Book Club on Channel 4.
