STEPHEN BAILEY
TART

Star of BBC’s Live at the Apollo, Would I Lie To You? and Channel 5’s The Madame Blanc Mysteries, comedian and TV’s Stephen Bailey makes a very welcome return to the stage with his brand new live show, TART, touring in 2025. The multi-award nominated star’s brand of gossipy humour has singled him out as one of the UK’s most sought-after talents – especially since going viral on Instagram after Hollywood A-lister, Melissa McCarthy, shared one of his videos calling him her “spirit animal”.

‘A rising star’ (The Sun), Stephen has appeared on every light entertainment show and come second on every celebrity quiz show and in his new show, he will gossip about everything from his funeral plans to his unrequited love for Ben Shepherd - he will even read you secrets direct

from the girlies WhatsApp group chat. Brassy, sassy and always classy – the perfect ingredients to make a proper Tart – in a show that cleverly shines a light on the socio-economic differences within Britain (without losing the fun).

Stephen’s quick-wit, playful sarcasm and enigmatic charm captivates instantly. He has already made a name for himself hosting Celebs on the Farm (Channel 5), Celebs on the Ranch (MTV) and Takeshi’s Castle (Comedy Central), and was the resident Agony Uncle on Zoe Ball on Saturday/Sunday (ITV) and a series regular on Big Brother’s Bit on the Side (Channel 5). Most recently, he made his debut BBC Radio 4 stand-up special Stephen Bailey: One of Many, which

quickly led to appearances on the networks hit show The News Quiz.
