KIERAN HODGSON: LANCE

In 2003, Lance Armstrong won his 5th Tour de France title, and a young boy in West Yorkshire believed in him. Now a character comedian, he (the boy) sets out on tour with a heartfelt and hilarious story of growing up, betrayal by professional athletes, and redemption.

‘Lance’ was nominated for Best Show at the Foster’s Edinburgh Comedy Awards in 2015 and had a sell-out four-week run in London’s West End last autumn. The Guardian also picked 'Lance' as the best comedy show of 2015.

Kieran starred in BBC2’s Making Dad’s Army this Christmas, and featured in BBC2’s Count Arthur Strong and the movie Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa.

 

‘An absolute gem of a comedy show – about teenage cycling, sullied dreams and migrating from the north. Every line of his script is wired for laughter’ The Guardian

‘Hodgson has here served up a one-man effort that lets his comedic talents roar as never before… Tour de France? Tour de force, more like’ The Telegraph

‘An impeccably woven piece of one-man storytelling… brilliantly funny’ The Times

‘A warm, funny and seamlessly delivered hour of character comedy’ The Sunday Times
