Kevin James Thornton is a rising TikTok/IG star with over 1 million followers and 500 million video views. He has built a loyal following posting hilarious, heartfelt and occasionally cringey moments of self reflection that are relatable to audiences young and old alike (with a splash of autotune).

From 2009-2012 he toured 3 successful one-man-shows nationwide to theatre festivals and comedy clubs where Showbiz Chicago said the performance was described as “intimate brilliance” and NUVO Indianapolis said it was “memorable and moving.” He has been featured in The Huffington Post, The Advocate, The New Yorker and Cosmopolitan, and was featured in a piece on NPR’s All Things Considered.

Kevin James Thornton brings his show to the Tyne Theatre and Opera House on Monday 27th November.

Theatre Director Jo Johnson commented: “We are excited to have Kevin James Thornton join our programme of comedy events for 2023 as he brings his one-man-show to our Theatre. We are always excited to host new and innovative shows and are huge fans of Kevin’s TikTok content, as well as his comedy!”
