Comedian Russell Brand has cancelled his show in the north-east due to a “personal emergency”.
The comedian was due to play at His Majesty’s Theatre (HMT) in Aberdeen on Thursday night but was forced to call off the show with only a few hours notice, the Evening Express reports.
A spokesman for Brand said: “Due to a personal emergency, Russell’s promoters regrettably announce the postponement of Russell’s tour date at His Majesty’s Theatre in Aberdeen tonight.
“Please keep hold of your tickets. Tickets holders will be contacted about the rescheduling of the show very soon.”
Aberdeen Performing Arts (APA) director of creative programming Ben Torrie said: “We realise this will cause huge disappointment but we will do everything we can to reschedule the date.”
The organisation has contacted all ticket holders warning them of the postponement.
