One minute you’re tucking into your chips on Blackstock Street, next there’s Ricky Tomlinson walking into Hot Water Comedy Club, looking like he owns the place. On Thursday 26 November 2026, Liverpool’s very own telly treasure will be taking to the stage for a night of stories, laughs and chat that’s got ‘proper Liverpool’ written all over it.
What’s It About?
Fans of The Royle Family, Brookside, or just a good natter in a Scouse accent are in for a treat. ‘Ricky Tomlinson In Conversation With Asa Murphy’ promises tales from a life less ordinary. This isn’t stand-up – it’s Ricky, as you’ve never heard him, joined by Asa Murphy, himself no stranger to Liverpool’s entertainment scene. Expect anecdotes from TV and film, memories of growing up in the city, and, knowing Ricky, probably a curveball or two along the way. The venue says it’ll be a night of entertainment and nostalgia – think more living room than lecture theatre, but with better seats.
When Is It On?
This one-night-only conversation happens on Thursday 26 November 2026, with the event kicking off at 7pm sharp. If you want a good spot, don’t hang about.
Where Is It?
You’ll find it at Hot Water Comedy Club, 17 Blackstock Street, Liverpool, L3 6ER. It’s right inside Blackstock Market, so you can’t miss it. And if you get peckish before or after, there’s no shortage of scran nearby.
Tickets
Tickets start from £22.50. The best way to get them is straight from the official Hot Water Comedy Club page. Book your place here – would be boss to say you saw Ricky live, instead of just on repeats.
