Fresh from a sell-out UK season, multi-talented comedian Lenny Henry
returns to Australia in July for a national tour with his new show,
Where You From?
Where You From? brings together the very best of Lenny Henry. It’s an
electrifying mix of stand-up, music, character comedy, and unexpected
pathos, all wrapped in his warm comic take on our world.
A cult star on television and one of Britain’s best-known and loved
personalities, Lenny has toured Australia four times – each sold out –
and since his last tour in 2004 he has continued to delight and
entertain audiences around the world with roles in film, TV and
documentaries, including Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban,
MirrorMask, LennyHenry.TV and Lenny’s Britain.
But live performance reveals the true genius of Lenny Henry. And
Australian audiences will see him over a three week tour in all capital
cities.
“His talent seems limitless. He is a comedian, impressionist, singer
and serious actor. His appeal is classless and ageless. He is as
popular with the over 60s as with the under 20s. He seems incapable of
giving offence. Even in today’s racially sensitive Britain, he can make
sharp comments about police harassment of blacks and get away with it.
Six foot two of baggy-suited sunshine and good humour. There is
apparently no-one immune to his charm.” Daily Telegraph, London
“Remarkable and exhilarating observational comedy ” Financial Times, London
“Brilliant…a stunning breakthrough for stand up comedy” Daily Mail, London
