Emmanuel said: “I can't wait to bring this new show on tour! Life After Near Death is a special one for me – it's personal, it's raw, but most importantly, it's funny. After an amazing time at the Edinburgh Fringe, across Europe, and in New York, I'm buzzing to take this to audiences across the UK. Get ready for big laughs and a few surprises along the way.”
