In celebration of what is set to be his twentieth anniversary living and performing as a comedian on this side of the Atlantic, Reginald D Hunter has announced a forty-date tour of the UK and Ireland in 2019. The show is titled Facing the Beast, and also includes a date in Dublin's Vicar Street on the 28th of June.

Hunter has become a consistent fixture on our television screens over the years with regular appearances on the likes of Have I Got News For You and 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown, while through the hugely popular BBC2 series Reginald D Hunter’s Songs Of The South and its follow up Reginald D Hunter’s Songs Of The Border he has had his own shows which both documented the growth of American popular song. This work in addition to his consistent work on the stand-up circuit has garnered him a diverse, generation-spanning fanbase.

Tickets for his Vicar Street show are priced at €28 and go on sale this Thursday the 22nd of November at 10am through Ticketmaster and usual outlets nationwide.
