| Performance Notes | Frank Skinner, Alan Carr, Shappi Khorsandi and many more to take to the stage at The Secret Policemans Ball 2008. The audience of 6,000 is part of a show-stopping performance, with never-before-seen collaborations, brand new sketches, explosive stand-up and off-stage performances from leading talent from both sides of the Atlantic.
The show which made its name with seven shows between 1976 and 1991 features some of the most cutting edge and leading comedic and musical talent and will also highlight some of Amnesty International's campaigning activities for human rights all over the world. This year's Secret Policemans Ball will also mark the start of Amnesty International's celebrations of the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in December.
