Performance NotesPart of a record-breaking run of 15 sell-out shows by comedian Victoria Wood at the Royal Albert Hall. This run of shows on 15 non-consecutive nights meant Victoria Wood achieved the Hall's record for most shows in a run by any comedian and any other female performer. Victoria Wood would return in 1996 to achieve the same record for another run of 15 sell-out shows.

"There is nothing to beat standing on a stage in front of two and half thousand people. When I played the Albert Hall last year, oh, it was wonderful. Instant gratification. Like having two and half thousand friends round, and you're the funniest one in the room."
(The Daily Telegraph, 8 September 1994)
