Comedy fans will have a second chance to see Chris McCausland at the Ipswich Regent next year

The big picture: McCausland's growing popularity reflects his recent success, including:

  • Regular appearances on top TV shows like "Have I Got News for You"

  • Hosting his own ITV1 chat show

  • A previous sell-out UK tour

The bottom line: With his original Ipswich date proving so popular, the additional April performance offers a second chance for fans to catch McCausland's "masterclass in stand-up comedy."
