Comedy The Invisible Dot presents:
Tim Key: Single White Slut
TOM’s - Key (37 now) climbs into his poetry clothes and leans
against his mic stand for another seventy minutes.
Now charming, he will recollect simple tales of love, gaze dead-eyed at the ladies, recite verse and do
basic talking. A lot of fairly grubby water’s sloshed under Key’s bridge of late so he’ll be churning that
up. He’s also fairly interested to lift the lid on Hollywood. There’ll be some Indian poetry, Indian beer
and, if he can get his act together, a spotlight. Other potential themes will be owls and maybe fairies.

Robert Newman’s New Theory of
Evolution
Comedian, journalist, novelist and activist Rob Newman makes a
hotly anticipated return to comedy with his first complete show in 7
years.
Rob describes the 150-year controversy in evolutionary theory and explores how the latest science
demonstrates that DNA is not destiny. From a Devil's Orchard made by lemon ants, to female buffalo
voting which way to go, from Prince Kropotkin escaping a Tsarist dungeon to altruistic vampire bats and
Richard Dawkins' postman wrestling naked, Rob Newman argues that cooperation drives evolution more
than competition.
Press response for Robert Newman:
"He is the funniest comedian I have ever seen…A passionate, chaotically brilliant comedian,” Sunday
Times.
"I am completely in awe of Robert Newman. Of his talent, his passion, his intelligence, and the way he
turns them to comedy with real firepower. If this world could be saved by a Superhero whose
Superpower was Comedy, that hero would be Robert Newman,” Kate Copstick, Scotsman.
More about Robert Newman:
In the past 20 years Rob has performed five solo stand-up shows including From “Caliban to The
Taliban (500 years of Humanitarian Intervention)” in (2003) and “Apocalypso Now” (2005) which was
recorded and aired by More4 under the title A History of Oil. He has also written regularly for The
Guardian and Vice magazine, and produced four novels, his most recent being The Trade Secret which
is due to be released in April 2013, published by Cargo/Cargo Crate. His TV and radio credits include
Robert Newman’s History of Oil (More4), History of the World Backwards (BBC Four), Newman &
Baddiel In Pieces (BBC Two) and The Mary Whitehouse Experience (BBC Two).

his old bones?
