Taskmaster's Kiell Smith-Bynoe announces new show with "all-star cast"
Kiell Smith-Bynoe has announced an exciting new show with an "all-star cast of comedians".
The Taskmaster and Ghosts star is going on tour with his improvised comedy show Kool Story Bro, which has previously been performed at sold-out shows in London, Brighton and Edinburgh.
Kool Story Bro will see Kiell and a rotating cast of improvisers take stories from the audience and turn them into completely improvised comedy sketches.

The rotating cast includes fellow Taskmaster star Emma Sidi, Big Boys’ Robert Gilbert, Mock The Week’s Emily Lloyd-Saini, Shadow and Bone’s Anna Leong Brophy and Starstruck actors Lola-Rose Maxwell and Nic Sampson. More cast members will be announced in due course.
Each show will also be co-hosted by a special guest. Previous guest hosts have included Lily Allen, Jamie Demetriou, Mo Gilligan, Charlotte Ritchie, Mathew Baynton, Rose Matafeo, Julie Adenuga, Guz Khan and Munya Chawawa.
The Kool Story Bro tour will kick off at Bristol's Old Vic on April 10, before travelling to theatres around the UK and wrapping up at the Soho Theatre Walthamstow in London on May 22.

"I've been trying to push the slogan Make Improv Kool Again but apparently that 'doesn't have a ring to it'," Kiell said.
"I'm very excited to take Kool Story Bro on tour around the country and bring the audience's stories to life, joined by the best improvisers on the world (it is on, think about it) and some huge special guest hosts from the world of TV.
Taskmaster series 19 is coming soon to Channel 4.
