The Invisible Dot moves to the West End

The Invisible Dot have been curating and promoting some of the best comedy in the country since 2006 acting as a safe haven for established acts to test out new material and as a launching pad for some of the most exciting new comedy to emerge from the current scene.

They are set to produce their biggest ever shows by taking their best acts onto the West End for a limited run at The Duchess Theatre. Here's a run down of all the shows coming up over the coming weeks.

ADAM BUXTON: KERNEL PANIC - THE INVISIBLE DOT

FOLLOWING A HUGE COMPLETE SELL-OUT LONDON RUN IN SEPTEMBER LAST YEAR, ADAM BUXTON REVIVES 'KERNEL PANIC' FOR FIVE NIGHTS.

Cult buffoon, award-winning radio host, and tech-lemming, Adam Buxton looks within the soul of his laptop and considers how we present ourselves in the net age (he shows stuff he's made and reads out web comments).

Buxton has been a master of his craft for over 15 years, with Adam & Joe on TV (Ch 4) and radio (BBC6 Music), and with the music video showcase BUG, now in its 6th year of sell out shows at the BFI Southbank. 

PLEASE NOTE THAT 'KERNEL PANIC' INCLUDES MATERIAL BY ADAM BUXTON THAT FEATURED IN 'BUG' AND 'BEST OF BUG' SHOWS IN 2013

FREEZE! - THE INVISIBLE DOT

TIM KEY and TOM BASDEN elevate their ritualistic double-act for one night in the West End. After six months apart (Key: solo show; Basden: China), the pair return to London's Theatreland to recite poetry, sing songs, shout, and guzzle lager.
"It’s impossible to describe the pure inventiveness of this show, you can only go and see it yourself"

TIM KEY: SINGLE WHITE SLUT - THE INVISIBLE DOT

FOLLOWING TWO SOLD-OUT LONDON RUNS AT THE SOHO THEATRE AND ARCOLA TENT, AND AWARD-NOMINATED PERFORMANCES IN AUSTRALIA, KEY SKIDS INTO THE WEST END FOR FIVE NIGHTS OF 'SINGLE WHITE SLUT'... 

Key (37 now) climbs into his poetry clothes and leans against his mic stand for another hour. 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 and 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. 

'Single White Slut' is the brand new show from the Edinburgh Comedy Award Winner, Time Out Comedy Performer Of The Year, and star of 'Alan Partridge: Alpha Papa'.
"Inventive, emotional and truly original. ‘Single White Slut’ is as daring and innovative as it is ridiculously funny" *****
TIME OUT

"Painfully funny. One of the most unusual & interesting artists in British comedy" ****
OBSERVER

"This is sublime, busy and evocative work from a man who keeps getting better and better” *****

“This is one art house form-buster who can really give you a good time” ****
TIMES

“In any other sphere apart from comedy, we’d probably class this way of looking at the world as certifiable. Here it feels like genius”
