Chris Turner

Mancunian comedian and freestyle rapper Chris Turner is hitting the road with his show, Spontaneous.

If you’ve ever wondered what happens when stand-up meets improv rap looks like, this is it, and he’s coming to The Wardrobe on the 10th July.

Chris’s quotable gags and rapid freestyle raps have established him as one of the most in-demand acts at comedy clubs around the world, currently  based in the USA.

In 2022, Chris began a Las Vegas residency, starring in Cirque Du Soleil’s show Mad Apple, the first Cirque show to ever feature stand-up comedy. He appeared on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, becoming the first British Comedian to perform there, and received a standing ovation.

2023 saw his show ‘Vegas, Baby!’ completely sell out its 25 date run at the Edinburgh Fringe, picking up multiple five star reviews and becoming one of British Comedy Guide’s Best Reviewed Shows at the festival
