Comedy superstar John Bishop is set to return to New Zealand with his new show John Bishop: 25 Years Of Standup, to celebrate his incredible 25-year career.

 

John Bishop said: “I can't believe that it will be 25 years since I first performed at the Frog and Bucket in Manchester.  It's been a rollercoaster!  And I can't thank the fans enough who have supported me all the way.  I really hope you can come and celebrate with me.” 

 

John has achieved huge success with a number of his own comedy, entertainment and documentary TV shows including: ‘John Bishop’s Australia’, ‘John Bishop’s Britain’; ‘John Bishop’s Only Joking’; ‘The John Bishop Show’ (BBC1); ‘The John Bishop Christmas Show’ and ‘John Bishop’s Gorilla Adventure’, ‘John Bishop’s Ireland’ and four series of the critically acclaimed ‘John Bishop: In Conversation With…’ which saw him chatting one to one with some of the biggest names in entertainment, music and sport. Other TV credits include two series of ’The John Bishop Show’, ‘Doctor Who’ and the documentary John & Joe Bishop: Life After Deaf.
