Award winning comedian, actor and composer Tim Minchin will return to Birmingham Hippodrome to open his critically acclaimed BACK tour on 23 & 24 October 2021.

Billed as “Old Songs, New Songs, F*** You Songs”, the show was originally performed in the UK in 2019 and covers Minchin’s extensive repertoire.

He has been celebrated globally for writing the music and lyrics for award-winning musical productions of Matilda and Groundhog Day, and more recently starred in the ABC comedy series Squinters and appeared as Friar Tuck in the Hollywood release of Robin Hood. He also starred in UPRIGHT, the award winning eight-part drama series which he co-wrote with The Chaser’s Chris Taylor, actor-writers Leon Ford and Kate Mulvaney, and co-produced with Lingo Pictures for Foxtel and Sky UK.

At the end of last year, he released his first studio solo album, Apart Together, which reached #3 in the ARIA charts.

Tickets go on sale from Thursday 11 March at 2pm for Birmingham Hippodrome Friends and Patron scheme members, ahead of a general on sale on Friday 12 March at 10am here.
