Fresh from her celebrity antics with Tara, Uri, Tony et al is jungle funnywoman Rhona Cameron.

The winner of numerous awards, the first achievement of note for this five-foot bundle of Scottish fun was winning the title of Rosebud Princess at the age of four.

In her 20s, Rhona left Scotland and headed for London where she quickly made an impact on the comedy scene. Her big break came when she toured with Jack Dee in 1995 and the rest is history.

Today, her engaging mix of anecdote and bemused reflection makes her one of the most gifted female comics in Britain.

"I'm an observational, self-referential type of comedian." Cameron's own description of her stage act actually speaks volumes for this media-savvy minx, whose natural intelligence shines through the tantalising wordplay like a 100-watt bulb.

Mixing up structural analysis and Scottish ribaldry at the drop of a hat, this is a woman of phenomenal wit.

Rhona draws on her real-life experiences for her comedy ideas, not that her life has been all laughs.

Adopted as a baby, her adopted father died when she was 14 and she has suffered from a catalogue of broken relationships and depression since.

Perhaps then final proof that it's the truly tragic that makes us laugh.

Her recent stage performances include her role in the West End debut of The Vagina Monologues but she has also chalked up TV credits a plenty.

2000 saw her first sitcom series, Rhona, written by and starring herself, airing on BBC2. Inspired by 70s US show Rhoda, it had a dry chumminess to it that was impossible to resist.

Stand up however remains her first love. "I'm honoured to be earning my living doing this. The reaction of an audience - there's nothing more beautiful."

Show starts 7.30pm/9.30pm, tickets £12/10.
