Richard Herring - Can I Have My Ball Back?
“Can I Have My Ball Back?”, Richard Herring’s triumphant return to stand-up after six years. This poignant and hilarious tour takes audiences on a rollercoaster ride through life, laughter, and the unexpected twists that shape us.
In 2021, Richard Herring faced a life-altering diagnosis: testicular cancer. As a comedian who had previously explored male genitalia in his show ‘Talking Cock’ and delved into toxic masculinity in ‘The Problem With Men’, this twist of fate felt both cruel and absurd. Now, he takes the stage to talk bollocks (literally) and answer the burning question: Is a severed gonad in a jar a fitting prize for Taskmaster?
Richard Herring’s wit, vulnerability, and unapologetic honesty shine through in Can I Have My Ball Back?. From medical drama to comedy gold, he weaves a narrative that resonates with audiences. Whether you’re a long-time fan or a newcomer, this show is a testament to resilience, laughter, and the absurdity of life.
