Mark the calendar for a dissenting voice
The Guinness World Record holding agitator brings his new show 100 Acts of Minor Dissent to Bury Metro Arts on Wednesday, February 5, then Bolton’s Albert Halls on March 28 and Salford’s Lowry on April 24.
Over the decades Thomas has been poking his nose into political hot potatoes for more than 20 years.

Along the way he became a Guinness World Record holder for political protests.
After the acclaimed, award-winning and deeply personal show Bravo Figaro, Mark is back to what he does best: making mischief.
On May 13, 2013, Mark set himself the task of committing 100 Acts of Minor Dissent in the space of a year and, on the stroke of midnight May 13 this year that task will end.

The results are subversive, mainly legal, occasionally inspiring and, most importantly inspirational to all those people who would love to join a protest but somehow never get round to it.
100 Acts of Minor Dissent has already sold out an entire month’s run at the 2014 Edinburgh Fringe.
A great opportunity to see arguably Britain’s favourite – and certainly its most active –political comedian.
