Ben Elton is a stand-up comedian, novelist, playwright, actor and writer who is best known for his work on 1980s sitcoms The Young Ones and Blackadder, and as the popular face of the decade's "alternative comedy" boom. His recent Shakespearean BBC sitcom Upstart Crow was a huge success which he adapted into West End Play.  He is also a highly respected author and has published sixteen novels, six of which became number one bestsellers. Widely known for his writing for the stage, he’s written three hit West End plays and the global phenomenon We Will Rock You based on the music of Queen. Now he is set to return to his first love and is bringing his stand up show to the London stage later this month.
