Tuesday 24 June 2025 Venue:  Salisbury Playhouse     map   Live music  •  Comedy Address:   Malthouse Lane, Salisbury, Wiltshire, SP2 7RA Telephone:  01722 320333 Event:  Rich Hall: Chin Music - 7.30pm - “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 and grab a seat because he never disappoints. Ever.

But outrageous fortune has other plans for the poor Prince of Denmark... With live music, audience interaction, brevity-boosting abridgements, comic turns and tragic twists there’s only one question: To be there, or to be square?
