Concrete Playground

Prepare to be lulled into a heady state of amusement. Daniel Kitson is bringing his self-deprecating, brilliant arrogance to Sydney for the second time in two months, with his latest one-man theatre show.

Kitson is a comedian who makes the state of being slightly depressed seem like the ultimate way to get around in life. He’s won a ton of awards, shuns the spotlight and is self-professedly socially inept when it comes to fans.

66a Church Road, which premiered at Edinburgh last year, has been lauded as a piece of theatrical comic genius. According to the man himself, "it’s a lovely show. With a beautiful set, with battered suitcases lighting up in quite magical ways, and obviously I’m saying awesome stuff at the same time, brilliant. Wallop."
