Information - Bill Bailey: Vaudevillean
We have some absolutely brilliant news for comedy and music lovers here in Ipswich! The legendary, multi-talented Bill Bailey is making a welcome return to our beautiful Regent Theatre with his brand-new show, Vaudevillean. Mark your calendars for Tuesday, 17th November 2026, because this is going to be a night to remember!
A Night of Pure Vaudeville Magic
Long before we had streaming services, television, cinema, or even the radio, there was Vaudeville. In its golden age, it was the absolute pinnacle of prime-time entertainment—a joyful, chaotic, and spectacular celebration of stand-up comedy, catchy songs, and jaw-dropping variety skills.
Bill Bailey’s new show is a heartwarming nod to this fantastic tradition. Expect a night filled with tales of showbiz, stories of the city, and glimpses into the strange and unusual. It is designed to do what the best entertainment has always done: amuse, amaze, and offer a wonderful escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. It’s high-energy, enthralling fun for the whole family!
The Ultimate Modern Vaudevillean
Who better to bring this spectacular tradition back to life than Bill Bailey? As a virtuoso multi-instrumentalist, multi-lingual presenter, and master of musical comedy, Bill is perhaps the finest modern practitioner of the Vaudeville art form.
Whether he is coaxing incredible tunes out of the strangest instruments, sharing his hilarious observations, or weaving intricate musical parodies, Bill’s showmanship is second to none. This is your chance to see a true master of his craft live on stage right here in Ipswich.
