MARK Thomas one of Britain’s most acclaimed comics and influential activists arrives at Brecon Theatr Brychieniog, Wednesday, July 8.

After 23 years of performing, six series of the Mark Thomas Product and Mark Thomas Comedy Product with Channel 4, numerous documentaries, two books, radio programmes, writing for the New Statesman and the Guardian, Mark has finally conceded that he might have a career yet.

Mark creates a manifesto, the audience votes on the policies they like, he road tests them and then sets off to make them happen. It’s somewhere between Jim’ll Fix It for anarchists and White Collar Crimewatch, with a passing nod at Bill Drummond, the Fluxus art movement and Anneka Rice.

For tickets ring the box office on 01874 611622.
