On the most depressing day of the year, January 25th, I will be accompanying Will Self for an evening’s improvised performance at the Komedia in Brighton.

For previous performances, I have interviewed Will as the editor of the London Free, London’s Freest newspaper. However, the chill economic conditions lead to the closure of the London Free. I have tried to remain upbeat during my long period of unworking and hope that this spirit of can-do positivity will persist into the New Year.

We are also embarking upon a warm-up gig at Express Excess at the Enterprise in Camden, on the evening of January 20th.
