Lee Evans: Monsters
Brighton Centre, King's Road, Tuesday, August 26, to Monday, September 1

THE hyperactive stand-up returns to Brighton for an impressive seven-night residency with his latest show.

Channelling the physicality of Norman Wisdom, the mania of the late Robin Williams, and bringing in his own trademark sweaty element, Lee Evans is at the forefront of the UK's arena-filling comedians.

Having enjoyed a Hollywood career in the 1990s, with memorable roles in Mouse Hunt, There's Something About Mary and The Fifth Element, Evans has been splitting his time in the 21st century between blockbuster live stand-up and theatre.

Warning – if you sit in the front row, you will get wet.

Doors 7pm, tickets £30. Call 0844 847 1515.
