The first in what will become the quintessential list of the best of live British comedy, AN AUDIENCE WITH LINDA SMITH brings you up close and personal with one of most exciting names in British comedy with this live recording of her sellout comedy tour. The AN AUDIENCE WITH...series will bring you a succession of live performances by some of Britain's best-loved comedians, opening with Linda Smith, one of the stalwarts of Radio 4. Linda Smith hits the stage running, creating an exhilarating evening of entertainment for connoisseurs of stand-up comedy. Linda's witty and inventive show blends the topical with the personal, the political with the surreal and silly. A veteran of 'I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue', Linda Smith offers an alterative blend of quick-witted British cynicism and intellect, with an innovative, slightly unhinged imagination that has won her numerous accolades throughout the world of comedy and radio. A British Comedy Award nominee for her stand-up work Linda is widely regarded as one of the sharpest comics working on Radio and TV.
She conquered the Edinburgh Fringe seven years running and then moved effortlessly into TV and Radio with regular appearances on Radio 4's 'The News Quiz' and Just a Minute and guests slots on 'Have I Got News for You?' and 'Call My Bluff', as well as writing and staring in A Brief History of Time Wasting. As well as winning the Hackney Empire's New London Comic Award, Linda was recently voted The Wittiest Living Person by listeners to Radio 4's Word Of Mouth.
