The iconic comedian’s first U.S. tour stop is the Internet. We get a first look at unreleased material from the open road.
Eddie Izzard: veteran surrealist, long-lost Python, free-associater, and funny person, stated last year that he’d like to go on tour. As in around the world. As in three languages. As in here. America. As in almost all fifty states. The concept of the world tour is forever-old. But within the current landscape of fractured, niche comedy, it feels especially poignant: the idea of funny as collective, kept in common; something that spreads across borders.
If you say you’re going to play the world, you should really play the world. Comedy works across national frontiers. Releasing Force Majeure as a BitTorrent Bundle allows me to bring the tour to the world beyond the stage.
Eddie Izzard
We’re with Eddie. Laughter is universal (and contagious). It should be. The US leg of the Force Majeure tour kicks off on April 30th. Your all-access pass is here, inside BitTorrent Bundle.
The Force Majeure BitTorrent Bundle features six Eddie Izzard videos, including two unreleased clips from the Force Majeure tour. You’ll also get memes, gifs, photos, plus running routes and a tour poster in case you want to catch Eddie live.

About BitTorrent Bundle
BitTorrent Bundle is an Alpha project, made with and for the web’s creative community. Our mission is to help artists connect directly with fans, inside the content they share.
Each BitTorrent Bundle allows artists to distribute content directly to the Internet. And each Bundle comes with a key. Fans can unlock artist content with an email address. The idea is to make each song a storefront, and each file more valuable, each time it’s shared. Got ideas for the next BitTorrent Bundle? Hit us up.
