Comedian and quizzer Paul 'The Sinnerman' Sinha will star at Shrewsbury's International Comedy Festival next year.
Organisers have confirmed that the stand-up comedian, TV and radio quiz specialist - who was due to appear at last year’s event but cancelled at the last minute due to contracting Covid - will be performing at the Gala Show at Theatre Severn on July 16.
He is a familiar voice on radio, with appearances on Radio 4's Just A Minute and The News Quiz and on BBC Radio 5 Live's Fighting Talk. His series Paul Sinha's History Revision won the Rose d'Or for radio comedy. He has also appeared on television, namely BBC's QI and Would I Lie to You? and as a competitor on Dave TV’s Taskmaster.
“Having tried several times to secure Paul’s appearance, then finally succeeding last year only to be thwarted by Covid, it gives us great pleasure to announce that he has agreed to be part of the 2023 Gala Show line-up.”
