Boothby Graffoe and Nick Pynn
on the 'Bang! Is This Your Vehicle, Sir?' tour
Saturday 31st March 2012
Doors open 8.30pm - 9.00pm Start. Ticket Price £12.00

Boothby Graffoe has had five series on BBC Radio 4. 2 of The Big Booth featuring amongst others Steve Frost, Richard Thompson, Ned Sherrin, Glen Tilbrook and Kevin Eldon. 3 of No Particular Order featuring amongst others Art Malik, Steve Frost and Paul Zerdin.
Boothby has written 3 plays for the stage. The Condition Of The Virgin, God and Adam and Hitler Sells Tickets. All three were subsequently adapted by the author for broadcast on BBC Radio 4. One of them in little 10 minute bits, but it still counts.

The Condition of the Virgin starred Tony Rhor, Jason Issacs and Paulin McLynn, with music from Robyn Hitchcock. God and Adam starred Art Malik as God, and Boothby himself as Adam. Hitler Sells Tickets was renamed Being Mussolini and starred Omid Djalil.
Boothby has written extensively for Omid Djalili, contributing to his live stand up and also providing stand up and sketches for 2 series of the highly successful Omid Djalili Show on BBC1, which has become one of the most exported TV shows around the world. Boothby was the writer of the revered Speed-relationship sketch amongst others.

Although having taken a 3 year holiday from stand-up comedy Boothby still took time in to support Canadian super-group Barenaked Ladies on 2 UK tours and 2 cruises, to the Caribbean and the Mexican gulf. Boothby has been asked to join the Ladies again next year on a 3rd cruise out of Miami in early Feb, (details to follow). Boothby has also supported Omid Djalili in 30 odd dates around the British Isles and Ireland.

Boothby has appeared in both The Bill, and Casualty. And late night with Conan O Brian. And supported Dean Friedman (no, really.) And has performed improv on many separate occasions, with Paul Merton, Eddie Izzard, and Mike McShane and many others
