Noble has been performing as a stand-up comedian since the age of 15. He has unveiled a new show every year for the last 15 years; his worldwide travel as a stand-up was the subject of his own BBC Radio 4 programs "Ross Noble Goes Global" and "Ross Noble On" and series "FreeWheeling" on DAVE earlier this year. He will join The Producers fresh from his latest U.K. and Australian tour.

The Producers is produced by Adam Spiegel Productions and is directed by Matthew White.
