Here’s a useless fact for you. Did you know that the original planned name of the Royal Albert Hall was The Central Hall of Arts and Sciences? It’s true; it’s on Wikipedia.
Why do I mention this? Well, the arts and science will be meeting (kind of) at this prestigious venue when Tim performs there on the 28th April 2011 with The Heritage Orchestra!
Yes, you read that right. Tim’s performing at the Central Hall of Arts and Sciences Royal Albert Hall. Sure, he’s performed there before, but this time it’ll be all about him, his silly songs and his 55-piece symphony orchestra!
Tickets go on sale on Friday at 9am.

Does anybody know what the duration is of the show?? I need to sort out train tickets x
Chrissie on 24th of January 2011
I’m really looking forward to the gig, the accoustics in the hall will really make the most of the sound etc. We have fab seats too so will see the stage etc.

Tim Minchin Fan without bottomless pit of money on 20th of January 2011
Me: “Hi, check out this awesome gig with Tim Minchin, Wanna go I’ll book the tickets”
Friend: “I’d love to go, that’s totally awesome and I’m free. How much is it?”
Me: “Err…”
This piece of VITAL information is missing from this post, the albert hall website and the facebook event. I can’t start inviting people until tickets have actually got a price and I’ll miss out on any good seats :-(
anyone know how much it is?
KT on 20th of January 2011

Definitley going to try for tickets…not seen Tim live yet!! I’m a little confused though as I went onto the Royal Albert Hall website which said Alex Zane was performing on the 28th April?!
Steph on 20th of January 2011
I saw this and thought, hey I could go to that! Then I remembered thats the last week of classes before finals, and I’m on the wrong continent. Come to America please Tim!!!

Must make sure I get on here on Friday, I MUST see Tim live. Love his dvds but I’m sure seeing him live would be just amazing! x
Capadocious on 19th of January 2011
The question is, if im coming down, is there likely to be a small horde of mancunians heading down too? possibility of group travel to make it cheaper?
kim on 18th of January 2011

Juliet Adkins on 18th of January 2011
This is very exciting news. Tim Minchin one day and a Royal Wedding (ie long weekend the next). I saw him at the O2 in December but am very, very tempted…
Claire on 18th of January 2011

Love Claire
deej on 18th of January 2011

Rohan on 18th of January 2011
Could someone with the money to go send me a copy of their brain afterwards so I can enjoy it?! While the Birmingham show was awesome, I would a) LOVE to see it again, and b) LOVE to see it at that particular venue. *sigh* Too much music and comedy, so little money! :P
GAZ on 18th of January 2011
all these new shows, hopefully a dvd will be recorded
Cathy on 18th of January 2011
Oh my, I’ve seen the show in Birmingham, am booked to spend a long weekend in Edinburgh and see it again on the 16th April, but am sorely tempted by this. Have never even been to the RAH, sounds like it would be pretty amazing!
Matthew Stokes on 18th of January 2011
Best. News. Ever!!!!!! I was just this weekend saying this would be THE best venue to experience Tim’s new show. OMG!!!!!!!!!!!
Ella Griffiths on 18th of January 2011
I saw Tim at the O2, should I see him again? Obviously I want to, but would it be exactly the same as the O2? I could never get bored of him, but is it worth spending the money if its gonna be exactly the same amazingness?
Rob on 18th of January 2011
Kiri its not ridiculous, its required! :)
Hideki on 18th of January 2011
Will there be more gigs coming up? Something smaller (cheaper) perhaps? Sadly, I missed an opportunity to see him locally (Tunbridge Wells), and it’s more difficult to see him as he’s a big star now…
Steve D on 18th of January 2011
I’ve always wanted to go to the Albert Hall!!! But I’ve already seen you at the O2 Arena last month and can’t afford to go again! Damn you Mr Minchin, you ginger genius! :(
Btw, I am also ginger, so I am allowed to call him ginger too! :P
Cazz on 18th of January 2011
I dont know yet if i’ll be there but I am thinking about it!!!! & Kiri no it wont be ridiculous, I saw Tim in Newcastle at the ‘Metro Arena’ then again a week later at Manchester M.E.N & now thinking about this lol. If you love Tim I say go for it!!!!
Emily on 18th of January 2011
oh i can’t come! I’m supposed to be having a baby that day….Tim, can we reschedule…??? Good luck! xx
Hettie on 18th of January 2011
I wanna go!!! :(
Vicky H on 18th of January 2011
Im seeing him on the 16th April and then again on 10th May !!
Kiri on 18th of January 2011
Would it be ridiculous to see Tim on the 16 April and then again on the 28th…hmmmm…i think not! :)
