Comedy icons Steve Martin and Martin Short are teaming up for a new UK tour in 2020.

The pair will bring The Funniest Show in Town at the Moment to the UK and Ireland, beginning in Glasgow on March 9 and concluding in Birmingham on March 18.

“The UK represents more to us than a long flight. It is the comedy motherland,” Martin said of the tour.

Short added: “There are so many brilliant British Shorts. And as we all know, “It's better to have loved a Short than never to have loved a tall.”

Martin and Short have been touring together since 2016. Their current show, which features a mix of standup, live music and character comedy, was previously filmed for a Netflix special in 2018. Watch the trailer below.
