Two comedy shows which were due to take place in Halifax this week have been postponed.

Russell Howard was set to perform two performances of his Don’t Tell The Algorithm show at the Victoria Theatre on Friday and Saturday, but they have been postponed.

In an announcement on Tuesday (yesterday), the theatre apologised on behalf of the promoter for any inconvenience caused, and said the postponement was due to unforeseen circumstances.

The two shows have both been rescheduled for April 24, when there will be a 3.30pm performance and a 7.30pm performance.

The theatre said that all customers have been emailed with further information.

The tour will see Russell Howard perform at dozens of venues throughout 2026 and 2027 all across the UK, plus two performances in New York.
