“He’s a man with genuinely funny bones” — The Sunday Times
Recently crowned Comics’ Comic – Best Act of the Year 2025 by the UK Comedy Awards, and also voted Best Act at the 2025 Yorkshire Comedy Awards, Rob Rouse has been one of the most beloved and brilliantly bonkers comedians on the circuit since winning the prestigious Channel 4 So You Think You’re Funny Award at the Edinburgh Festival in 1998.
Funny Bones is Rob’s brand-new stand-up show: a relentlessly funny and daft evening of comedy, from a one-man whirlwind who pulls the audience into his craftily spun tall tales with bucketfuls of manic energy, first-class stagecraft, eerily relatable characters, and a barrage of brilliant one-liners.
“One of my favourite comics. A very silly and funny man” — Greg Davies
“Rob Rouse is a joy machine, a natural clown” — Kerry Godliman
“An extraordinary comedian” — Jessica Fostekew, The Observer
“I have been helpless with laughter watching Rob on stage. Pure, joyful, hilarious stand up. He’s one of the best there is. He’s a very silly man. Very silly indeed” — Marcus Brigstocke
“Rob is always hilarious, and has total command, without fail he leaves a room vibrant and joyful” — Nina Conti
Previous tour support includes Nina Conti, Kerry Godliman, Rory Bremner and Marcus Brigstocke.
★★★★★ “Comedy guaranteed to lighten even the darkest of moods” — Edinburgh Evening News
★★★★★ “Bursting with originality, energy and enthusiasm, Rob Rouse is a delirious but hilarious man” — The List
★★★★ “Just go and see it” — The Sunday Times
★★★★ “Eye-wateringly hilarious” — Hairline

“Left the audience in a giggling slobbering heap” — Edinburgh Festival Magazine
