The show, which features stories and anecdotes about the challenges faced by teachers, parents, and school staff, is part of a wider tour across the UK.
The Mr Ps, who are both teaching professionals, have gained a large following through their podcast, which has amassed over seven million listens since its launch in 2018.
Their humour and insights into classroom life have made them popular not only with educators but also with parents and anyone who has ever been to school.
Lee Parkinson, known as 'ICT Mr P', has been a primary school teacher for more than 17 years and is a well-known figure in the UK education sector.
He continues to work part-time in school and also delivers training nationwide and internationally.
Adam Parkinson, Lee's younger brother, is a higher-level teaching assistant in a primary school in Manchester.
As a proud father of a child with special educational needs and disabilities, Adam regularly shares content and SEND parenting tips on his social media accounts.
The Two Mr Ps have also authored three books, which have all become Sunday Times bestsellers.
Their live show is an extension of their podcast, sharing funny observations and stories from school, and encouraging audience participation.
Fans can submit their own stories, confessions, dilemmas, and embarrassing moments to be read anonymously during the show.
The upcoming tour follows the sell-out success of their previous live tours in 2022 and 2023.
Tickets for the show in Reading are available now from the venue's box office.
The show is scheduled to take place during the October half-term, giving teachers, parents, and school staff a chance to enjoy a night of laughter before heading back to the classroom.
The rest of the tour will see the brothers performing in various locations across the UK.
The full list of dates and venues is available on their website,

They offer a chance for people to come together, share experiences, and enjoy a good laugh at the ups and downs of life in and out of the classroom.
With their unique blend of humour and experience, the Two Mr Ps are sure to deliver a night to remember.
