Eddie Izzard Stripped DVD

One of Britian’s favourite comedians Eddie Izzard has just released a new live DVD from his recent UK tour.  Stripped was recorded in London at the Lyric Theatre.

The Stripped tour broke box office records, selling out a five-week residency in London’s West End in less than 48 hours with tickets alledgedly exchanging hands for thousands of pounds.

The UK tour came hot on the heels of an American sell-out tour, which played across 34 US cities – including three packed-out nights at New York’s legendary Radio City Music Hall.

Stripped Live sees Eddie Izzard in his free flow stand-up mode, appearing to perform without a precise script as he ad-lib’s his way through the history of the world and mankind with reference points from Wikipedia.

The Stripped tour continues throughout the UK and Europe so if you haven’t got tickets then this DVD is the next best thing.

Eddie Izzard has been hailed as one of the foremost stand-ups of his generation. He takes ideas and situations and extrapolates them into bizarre, absurd and surreal comic narratives. Since his first stage appearance on London’s West End in 1993 there have been a succession of sell-outs and critically acclaimed international tours. Eddie’s musings have earned him countless awards including two Emmy’s.

Eddie recently took a few weeks off and ran 1200 miles around the UK for Sport Relief – that’s a staggering 43 marathons in 51 days!

Eddie Izzard Stripped DVD was released on Monday 23rd November.
