Ricky Gervais has announced six intimate stand-up shows to take place next month.

As part of his Work In Progress shows he kicks off the run on August 7-8. He will then perform at the venue on August 14-15 and finish up on August 20-21.

The comedian will perform the live shows at London's Plesance Theatre.

Back in May he played three sold-out dates as part of the Work In Progress, which he often does before announcing a full UK tour.

His most recent tour was the Humanity Tour which was also filmed for his 2018 Netflix special.

This upcoming venue has a maximum capacity of just 230 so tickets are expected to be in high demand when they go on sale.
