Geoff Norcott is set to perform on Tyneside as part of his sixth national tour.
The comedian will embark on a 70-date tour, which he has named "BASIC BLOKE", in September this year. The 46-year-old will use humour to unlock some of the more complicated behaviour of husbands, dads and brothers.
He has announced a date in Newcastle during the autumn. He will perform at The Stand on Friday, October 20 this year.
