Jupitus brings Juplicity to Bakewell

Following his hugely successful tour of the UK in 2017, stand-up comedian, poet, improviser and TV stalwart Phill Jupitus will be taking his acclaimed stand-up show JUPLICITY to Bakewell Town Hall on Friday 30th November.

Watch in delight and/or horror as experienced funny man Jupitus drags laughs out of the chaos of his own life and the uncertain world that surrounds it. And by that world, we mean yourworld too.
