Behind this amiably lacksadasical facade hides a brilliantly inventive comic mind that never rests on its laurels.
Audiences can't help but warm to Graffoe's gloriously laid-back manner.
But then, when suitably lulled, he'll whack them with a genuinely unexpected punchline.
An artist in total control of his material, who knows exactly what he's doing and where he's going, it's gloriously entertaining and creative stuff, studded with surreal leaps of imagination, twists of language and intelligent and pithy one-liners.
Presenting stand-up comedy and sitdown songs, Boothby is an irresistible comedy package and a real class act. He also hosts the monthly popular club Boothby at Brighton's Komedia, for which he won the Brighton Fringe Best Comedian Award 2005.
He's also the star of BBC Radio 4's show Boothby Graffoe In No Particular Order.
Starts 9.15pm. Tickets £12/£11. Call 01273 709709.
