Leigh Francis, commonly known as Keith Lemon, is taking his next live show to Sheffield City Hall.

The tour consists of his most popular sketches over the years, alongside the introduction of some exciting new impersonations.

Having kicked off in Bath , he arrives to Sheffield on the 15th of March for his first live tour.

He is well known for his previous shows, such as being the host of Celebrity Juice which hosts a panel of celebrity guests participating in challenges.

In his press release, Leigh says: “Hey, really exciting news! Well exciting for me! I hope it’s exciting for you! Or at least provokes some sort of interest! I mean, just look how many exclamation marks there is in this quote! It’s definitely news with exciting intent!”

Known for his raunchy style of comedy, his tour is gaining excitement from the public.

Oliver Jones, a student, said: “I think he is a very funny person, I loved ‘Through the Keyhole’ because we got to see the weird things people do in their homes.”

This event space has proved a pivotal role in the formation of Sheffield, located in between the city centre and a hub of bars and restaurants.

The venue is known for hosting a variety of events since 1932, notably comedy acts from the likes of Romesh Ranganathan and Tom Allan. 

Mr Jones said: “I think it’s great that he is coming to Sheffield because he has a large fanbase and I think a lot of people find what he does amusing. No matter how much people don’t like him, there are always going to be people who want to see him”.

Maisie Aldrige, a student, said: “I think its brilliant, especially post-covid. We needed to bring back entertainment and comedians need that platform.”

Although, other residents have mixed opinions on his tour.

David Schofield, a charity worker, said: “Im a bit ambivalent really. He’s a little bit controversial but there are worse people.”

Whether you love him or not, ‘this tour will be packed full of hilarious sketches and buckets of audience interaction’.

The press release states that Leigh will offer people a night to remember.
