Words by Staff Writer

Kevin Bridges is thrilled to be returning to Australia in November for a national tour which will include a performance at the Just For Laughs Sydney Comedy Festival.

An Overdue Catch-Up welcomes audiences in to the mind of one of the sharpest comedy talents the UK has to offer.  With a career spanning an incredible 18 years, Kevin Bridges already has the life experience of a man twice his age, helping him to hit the nail on the head with his shrewd outlook on the modern world.

Bridges has previously broken box office records with his last two tours, Brand New (2018) and A Whole Different Story (2015) going on to win awards from Ticketmaster and Ents24 for Fastest Selling Ticket of the Year.  He was also crowned by Ticketmaster fans as UK’s Ticket of the Year in 2018.

Kevin has released four best-selling DVDs: The Story So Far – Live in Glasgow in 2010, The Story Continues in 2012, 2015’s A Whole Different Story and 2018’s Brand New.
