Michael McIntyre adds new date in Wolverhampton after first two shows sell out within hours
A popular floppy-haired comedian will be heading to Wolverhampton later this year – and has added an extra date after tickets to his shows sold out in a matter of hours.
Comedian Michael McIntyre will visit the city in July for a 'work in progress' show, which are often used by stand-up comics to try new material on audiences.
The presenter of his own Saturday night series, Michael McIntyre's Big Show, and the game show, The Wheel, on BBC One, will be on stage at The Wolverhampton Grand Theatre on July 13 and 14.
But fans were quick to snap up the tickets in a matter of hours after the announcement was made by the theatre on Friday.
As a result, a third date of Wednesday, July 12, has been added, with tickets going on sale at 4pm today.
The 47-year-old has also hosted his own BBC One comedy programme Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow, featured in episodes of Live at the Apollo, and in 2011 was a judge on Britain's Got Talent.
Other judges on the panel at the time included David Hasselhoff and Amanda Holden.
He has also previously hosted the Royal Variety Performance on ITV.
