Ross Noble

Nonsensory Overload!

Ross Noble rose to mainstream popularity through making appearances on British television, particularly interviews and on celebrity quiz shows such as Have I Got News For You.
In a poll for Channel 4, Noble was voted the 10th on a list of the 100 Greatest Stand Ups.
Noble's stand-up routine is a largely improvised and surreal performance with a stream of consciousness delivery. Often, a large percentage of his set becomes based around heckles and conversations with members of the audience. Although he does often have a few set topics which he performs throughout a tour, he describes the planning for the entire show as, "about four words on a piece of scrap paper".
It is common for Noble to have a new and elaborate set for each tour. Some of these include - trees disguised as trees, an enchanted forest (complete with an entirely imaginary elven carriage) and a giant inflatable representation of himself.
Ross performed at the 2008 Latitude Festival and rounded off his set by leading everyone in the tent in a huge conga line (which quickly turned into a stampede) to a vegan food stand so they could all ask for pies and sausage rolls
