The cast of The Fast Show are reuniting for a live tour to celebrate the sketch show’s 30th anniversary.

Today (January 25), it was announced that An Evening With The Fast Show will run between February and April 2024, with cast members Simon Day, Charlie Higson, John Thomson, Paul Whitehouse, Mark Williams, and Arabella Weir all featuring.

...

“This celebratory live tour will be a huge treat for fans of the multi-award winning quick-fire TV sketch show and provide a real behind-the-scenes insight into some of their favourite characters and catchphrases as they come alive on stage once again.

“The cast will chat together about how it all began, how they made the TV show, and created the characters and the fun they had doing it. This will be interspersed with performances of some of their best-loved sketches monologues and songs, with on-screen inserts and a moment to remember their former collaborator, the late, great Caroline Aherne.

I keep getting wrong-footed by anniversaries like this. It's the 25th anniversary of American Pie and I was all "but that was almost yesterday!" and then I checked.

I'm angling to meet the cast. We'll see how that works out...
