Mark Thomas - Hit Refresh: 50 Things About Us at Lawrence Batley Theatre, Huddersfield 30 May 2022 Tickets from £14.50 — Book now

Lawrence Batley Theatre will host Mark Thomas’ new show about money, history, songs, sods of soil and rich people – 50 Things About Us.

In 50 Things About Us, Mark picks through the myths, facts and figures of our national identities to ask who do we think we are? And how we have so much feeling for such a hollow land.

Omnipresent throughout is his trademark mix of storytelling, standup, mischief and well researched material to examine how we have come to inhabit this divided wasteland that some of us call the United Kingdom.
