ORIGINAL, provocative and prolific, the last two years have been non-stop for Dane Baptiste.

The London born stand up made comedy history in 2014 as the first black British act to be nominated for a Fosters Award at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival for his debut show Citizen Dane.

Earlier this year he completed his first nationwide tour of his latest critically acclaimed and hit show Reasonable Doubts in addition to a sold out run at The Soho Theatre.

He has also created, written and starred in his own sitcom series - Sunny D - for BBC Three and made numerous other TV and radio appearances.

Now he is bringing the second leg of his Reasonable Doubts UK tour to Ashcroft Arts Centre in Fareham tonight (October 21).

His show is all about doubt. Dane’s life has changed in the last 12 months; he has achieved things that he had previously only ever dreamt about. But now he has doubts. Dane is questioning everything. Can he be a comedian distinct from the other seven black comics known in the UK? Will he now be considered the go-to guy for any formats that require ethnicity? Dane tells the audience that being the token gets you no respect from either sides of the colour lines. He explains that with the advent of reality TV it seems that no one wants a regular career. Everyone wants to be famous. Each generation preaches to the other. No one cares about religion anymore, we all worship technology. He has doubts about where we are going as a civilisation. Who knows or even cares about politics today? Dane doubts if he’ll ever have a successful relationship. People live a lot longer – and it was easy to be faithful if you were at sea for three months! But maybe he's thinking about it too much…
