One of the country’s top comedians is coming to Evesham.
Ivo Graham will perform at the Town Hall later this year, Evesham Live has announced.
Ivo, 32, will be familiar to fans of shows such as Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo, Taskmaster and University Challenge as well as listeners of the Off Menu podcast.
“We’re really pleased to get Ivo back to Evesham,” said Evesham Live’s comedy programmer Keith Norledge.
“Ivo appeared in Evesham long before making it on TV, having appeared at one of Evesham Live’s monthly RAW Comedy nights several years ago.”

Eton and Oxford University-educated Ivo will perform in Evesham on Sunday, November 19, as part of his Organised Fun tour.
He will be joined on stage by several other comedians, who are yet to be confirmed.
The show, which will start at 8pm, is the first of four UK comedy tours coming to the Town Hall this Autumn courtesy of Evesham Live.
The description for Organised Fun reads: “After dismantling a barge, doxxing himself in the Doubletree, and blanking on the 1992 Ipswich Town crest (Taskmaster, Off Menu, University Challenge), Ivo ropes his audience into more chaos against the clock.
“‘Humiliation’s your thing, right?’ his brother asked him at Christmas, and, with the full existential ramifications of that still being processed, he’s lining up a show with more risk than ever before (NB: previous shows have broadly been quite low risk). Expect quizzes, tangents, and fluster.”
Tickets for the show are priced at £16 plus a £1 booking fee and go on sale on Wednesday, March 29.
They can be purchased from the Evesham Live website or in person at The Almonry.
