MUSICAL satirist Mitch Benn is bringing his show Don't Fear The Reaper to The Sundial Theatre in Cirencester on Saturday, September 23.

It's been a morbid time for Mitch. He has turned 47, over the hill by anyone's standards, his personal life is in turmoil, and his childhood heroes are dropping like flies.

At times like these, a man feels the Reaper creeping up on him… But is death anything to fear?

And is it really the end? (Yes. Yes it is, sorry!) Mitch confronts his - and the audiences mortality with hilarious (and tuneful) consequences.

A stalwart of BBC Radio 4's 'Now Show' for more than a decade, Mitch has also presented many radio specials. Following on from the success of 'Mitch Benn Is The 37th Beatle', a further three specials on music icons Bob Dylan, David Bowie and Elvis have been broadcast.

He also co-presented with Harry Shearer BBC Radio 2's 'Anatomy Of A Guitar' and presented 'Spank The Plank' for BBC Radio 4.

Most recently, in December 2016, he appeared on (and won) BBC1 television's 'Celebrity Mastermind'!

Mitch is the author of two novels, 'Terra' and 'Terra's World' both published by Gollancz and co-author with Jon Holmes of 'The Twitter History Of The World' the paperback edition of which was published by Prion Books in September 2015.
