The tour will begin at Hull Truck on Saturday 8th February 2020 and conclude at Oxford’s Old Fire Station on Thursday 9th April 2020, taking in an initial total of 27 dates including a run at London’s Soho Theatre from 16th to 21st March 2020.

Tom has spent his whole life obsessed by the theft of his foreskin. This is the story of a journey into manhood, but without one.
Tom Rosenthal said: “It has been thoroughly embarrassing going around the country talking about my circumcision but it sold quite well so we’re doing it again. I look forward to leaving whole new groups of people far more informed about my penis than they need to be.”
Tom took his debut stand-up comedy show, Child of Privilege, to the Edinburgh Fringe in 2011. That year he won the prestigious Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year title competition and was subsequently nominated for Best Breakthrough Act at the British Comedy Awards.
