Comedian Russell Brand is to embark on a world tour.
Messiah Complex will be his first ever world stand-up tour, and it’ll see Russell visit Dubai, UK, America, Germany, South Africa and Sweden.
He said: “I am going to tour The World (our one, Earth) with Messiah Complex, causing bother and excitement and offering opinions that have not been either solicited or thought through.”
“Messiah Complex,” will be a dissection of various social and religious figures and the reality of their lives through comparisons of each other.
Russell said he’ll appear in not only theatres, but also prisons, drug rehabs, social network HQ’s, universities, nationalist organisations, Mosques, foreclosed houses and protest houses. He’s even going to appear at people’s houses!
