Daniel Kitson won the Perrier Award in 2002 and has been living it down ever since.
He professes to hate acclaim and is a man who longs to take headlong flight from success.
Thank God, though, that he keeps coming back. As brilliant as ever in his latest stand up show, he switches from sweetness to spite and back again, drawing laughs along the way.
A fundamentalist romantic, dropping joke-bombs in the name of idealism, his writing is strong, entertaining, intimate, funny, sad, poignant life-affirming stuff.
Kitson is the perfect antidote to the slick, laddish, sex-and-drugs comics that pervade the comedy circuit.
Starts at 8.45pm. Tickets cost £10, call 01273 709709.
