New tour for Daniel Kitson

But he'll be playing to empty theatres

Daniel Kitson has announced a new live show about the pandemic, which he will perform in empty theatres.

Dot. Dot. Dot. is described as being ‘his account of six ridiculous and devastating months, experienced largely from a safe distance, almost immediately misremembered and retold here so inaccurately as to be, very nearly fictional’.

The show will tour nine theatres in November, with previews in Hebden Bridge Trades Club in October. 

Each performance will be without a live audience, but streamed live - with the number of tickets to view limited to the same capacity of the venue.

In an email to fans, Kitson said: ‘I’ve been excited by the potential of this idea since late July and to be honest, it feels like a unique opportunity to make something new specifically for this particular and odd context, rather than produce a compromised version of something else.’

Tickets, priced £10, will be available from 10am on Monday. The full tour schedule is here.
