Rich Hall: Chin Music

at Festival Drayton Centre
Market DraytonRich Hall: Chin Music
20:00 - 22:30 9th October 2026

More Information“Chin Music” has two meanings. One is idle talk. The other is a brushback throw in baseball or cricket to intimidate the batter. Both describe Rich Hall’s comedy. Idle but intimidating. Sharp, quick, splenetic, and sublimely improvisational. If you’ve never seen him, you need to hustle down to your local venue and grab a seat because he never disappoints. Ever.
