Daniel Kitson announces shows with just one day's notice

Daniel Kitson has announced two new gigs in London this week – just one day before they happen.

The comic is reviving his Show For Christmas at South London's Battersea Arts Centre tomorrow and Friday.

And tickets just went on sale at 1pm today.

Kitson performed the 90-minute show over five nights at the venue's grand hall last December, before it was gutted by fire.

And now he is returning to anoter room in the venue for the two shows, which will be a warm-up for a two-week run in New York kicking off next week.

He said on the Battersea Arts Centre website: 'This is a warm-up for those shows, is likely to be ricketty as all giddy up and will basically be the first time I have read these words out loud in almost exactly a year.'

Kitson has previously said the 'pretty lovely' tale 'deals with all your archetypal seasonal fare. Which is to say loneliness, a brief scuffle in a newsagents, mobile phones, tradition, magic, the past and a long journey in a mid-sized motorhome.'
