Peter Kay decided that theatres just weren’t big enough for his comedy tour, so he took his Tour That Doesn’t Tour into Arena’s.
Peter Kay's Farewell Tour
But that isn’t the end of it, Peter Kay is upping the ante with his Tour That Doesn’t Tour – Farewell Tour. A mouthful indeed, but the Northern Comedian, knows what he’s doing as he is set to play the MEN Arena in Manchester for 19 nights.
These extra 19 nights at the MEN is expected to see up to £6 million worth of extra ticket sales, definitely not to be sniffed at!
This tour has grossed around £35 million in tickets sales alone, that doesn’t take in to account the DVD which is inevitable, or the merchandise that was being sold at each venue.
Does Peter Kay really need rock ‘n roll style pyrotechnics?
How far can Peter Kay now go with his observational stand-up comedy? After seven years away from the limelight, there is no doubt that there was rapturous applause and standing ovations after each live show. But was this to do with the new Pyrotechnics that were used at the finale,that turned this stand-up comedian into a near rock ‘n roll star?
His nostalgic comedy stays the same, with his family still playing a huge part in the proceedings along with Channel 4 programmes such as Come Dine With Me, Grand Designs, Super Nanny and How To Look Good Naked, does Peter Kay have a remote control in his house?
New comedians emerging with the popularity of stand-up comedy!
The recent surge in the popularity in stand-up comedy has seen other comics emerge and steal the limelight. Michael McIntyre is the first name to spring to mind, with critics already saying that McIntyre has the edge over Kay. Although fellow comedians have been very critical about Peter McIntyre following his performance on Britain’s Got Talent, saying that he had sold himself out to the establishment!
But Peter Kay has a following that he will never shake off, the Northern comedian will always pack a punch filling venues to the rafters, with his cheeky and unique brand of comedy.
