Katie Mitchell: Giddy - Chippenham Comedy Festival 2026

The Old Road Tavern, Chippenham, SN15 1JA
Saturday 27th June 2026 8:30PM
It’s not easy becoming the World’s Greatest Sportsman growing up in the Los Angeles Suburb of Ilkeston, Derbyshire. It’s hard to focus on your training when you live in the mean streets between the scrap metal yard and Big Tesco. And it doesn’t help the vampires are always watching.

In a hugely ambitious return to character comedy, Katie Mitchell (Best in Class 2023, 4* Broadway World, 4*WeeReview) is setting out to make her silliest and yet most autobiographical show yet. Surreal, collaborative, and so goddamn funny, this is a show for all hearts, faint or not.

In the Los Angeles suburb of Ilkeston, Derbyshire, there’s scams brewin’. Under the earth, seeping up between your toes from where the coal used to be. Here is a place of monsters, darkness, and Sports! Join the World’s Greatest Sportsman Katie Mitchell for an hour of absolute silliness about how growing up an orphan on a council estate is the third funnest thing you can do.
