London Run For Daniel Kitson

Daniel Kitson will be doing a London run of his latest show Collaborator. It is billed as a work in progress.

BTJ saw an early version of the show at the Edinburgh fringe last year and while critics have been asked not to review it we can say it is one of his most mischievously self-referential and inventive yet.

The run will be at the Albany in Deptford from Monday July 15 to Friday August 3.

Tour Dates For New Daniel Kitson Show

Daniel Kitson is to take his latest show on a tour starting on March 7.

The new show is called Collaborator. In typical enigmatic style Kitson doesn't want to say too much about it in advance but he wrote on his newsletter: " Id (sic) rather you didnt really know too much before you came along but i will say, as shows go, especially my shows - it’s short and its fun - aka the dream. "

Beyond The Joke 'saw' a version of this in Edinburgh and needless to say it's a return to form for maverick genre-straddler Kitson.
