"The consultant had told me he was confident I had throat cancer that had spread into the lymph glands. Joyfully, I held his hand, and looked up to the heavens like a South American footballer after scoring a goal. It was one of the happiest moments of my life."

Join multi-award winning, BAFTA-nominated writer and comedian Mark Steel for his new tour, The Leopard in My House. The topic? His battle with throat cancer. A battle he is winning (thankfully), and which only his rapier wit could fashion a comedy tour show out of. Cancer has done nothing to dull Mark's acute political observations or quash his "frankly bonkers" energy: you will laugh, you will cry, but you'll laugh again, and again, and again. This show is proof that this leftie, working-class, Radio 4 favourite truly deserves his place in the UK comedy pantheon. 

Mark is best known for his renowned BBC Radio 4 show, Mark Steel's in Town (now in its 13th series), as well as his hit podcast, What The F*** Is Going On..?. He has presented the BAFTA-nominated Mark Steel Lectures for BBC Two, and is a regular on BBC One's Have I Got News for You, and BBC Radio 4's The News Quiz. He has also written several books, including an adaptation of his highly-regarded stand-up show, Who Do I Think I Am? for Audible.
