Comedian Daisy Doris May announces huge debut tour with date in Manchester

Character comedian, drag king and voice of C4’s ‘First Dates’, Daisy Doris May is heading out on her debut tour this autumn, as (for the first time!) she brings together all three of her iconic characters Steve Porters, The Divine Karen Moonstone and Häns Off into one new show, BIG NIGHT OUT!

The tour announcement comes as Daisy launches the show at this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe, playing at Assembly George Square (Underground), every night at 9.50pm until Sunday 24th August 2025 (no performance Tues 12th Aug).

Being touted as ‘the next Catherine Tate’ after tour support slots with Hannah Gadsby and over 30 million+ views across TikTok and Instagram, the rising comedy star will take ‘BIG NIGHT OUT’ on tour across the UK this autumn, for 9 shows from Friday 3rd October – Wednesday 5th November 2025, including a three-night run at London’s Underbelly Boulevard in Soho (16th - 18th Oct).

Having previously performed solo shows just as Steve Porters, BIG NIGHT OUT is a debut for Daisy Doris May’s broader character comedy repertoire, and is the first time she has taken on the challenge of performing all three of her iconic characters in one show. Meet May’s three characters below - flawed Guildfordian ladies’ man Steve Porters, self-appointed guru and meditation master Karen Moonstone, and Berlin Klubkid Häns Off.

On taking the three characters on tour for the first time, May said: “Could not be more excited for my first ever UK tour... Karen Moonstone will bring her sage (and secret supply of biltong.) HÄNS OFF will be bringing ze aloe Vera to microdose & his separate tour bus to play ze TechNo / TechYes & Steve Porters will just be bringing his mum Rozza, for emotional support. Edinburgh Fringe has been WILD so far and putting all three alter egos in one hour has been a very fun ride.”

Pre-sale tickets are available from Wednesday 6th August, 10am. Tickets go on general sale this Thursday 7th August, 10am. Tickets HERE.
