Dom Joly returns with Trigger Happy TV anniversary tour
Comedian Dom Joly is coming to the Palace Theatre in Paignton as part of a national tour in 2026/27 marking 25 years of his ground-breaking Trigger Happy TV.
It’s been 25 years since Trigger Happy TV burst on to our screens, transforming the hidden camera format with its surreal universe of characters and unforgettable pranks.
To celebrate a quarter-century of chaos, Dom is bringing his most iconic characters and sketches to the stage. Fans will experience beloved moments from the show, including The Giant Snail, The Traffic Warden, The Morris Dancer, The Scout, A Gang of Squirrels, and THAT Big Mobile Phone.
In addition, Dom will share behind-the-scenes stories and insights on how these unforgettable moments came to life. But the surprises don’t stop there – this is live theatre, and fans can expect the unexpected.
Dom said: “I played a handful of shows in Autumn that sold out. We were inundated with requests for more shows – so here they are.”
Maureen McAllister, Theatre Director, said: “This will be his third visit to the Palace and we absolutely love his crazy humour. Maybe 25 years have passed but he is still 100% hilarious.”
The Palace Theatre date is Friday 30 April 2027.
