Simon Evans: Staring at the Sun

Simon Evans brings his stand-up show Staring at the Sun to the Stephen Joseph Theatre on Saturday 21 November, with the performance starting at 19:30. It's a single-night run, and it's being staged in the Round, so you'll be sitting around him rather than facing a traditional stage.

If the name doesn't ring a bell, you've almost certainly heard his voice. Evans is a regular on BBC Radio 4, where he's built his following on the long-running Simon Goes to Market. He's also a familiar face on The News Quiz and a panellist alongside Frank Skinner on One Person Found This Helpful. Staring at the Sun is his stand-up show, and this is the one he's taking to the SJT.

It's a good one to keep in mind if you're after a night of comedy in Scarborough that autumn. The show runs on Saturday evening, so it's an easy one to fit in without having to worry about a work morning the next day. The venue is the Stephen Joseph Theatre on Westborough, YO11 1JW, and as it's in the Round, the seating is a bit different from your usual theatre setup.

Tickets are £20 full price, with an under-30s ticket for £10. There are also restricted view seats for £15, which go free for under-30s. The show starts at 19:30 on Saturday 21 November.
