Robin Ince is appearing in St Leonards AND Hastings on Saturday 8 December

Saturday 8 December is Ince Day

Comedian Robin Ince is performing in both St Leonards AND Hastings this coming Saturday, 8 December. His national tour of independent shops includes an appearance at The Bookkeeper at 2pm and Wow and Flutter at 6.30pm. Erica Smith spoke to Bookkeepers’ Carol Dennard.

Comedian Robin Ince is probably best known for being the comedy nerd who partners Brian Cox in Radio 4’s The Infinite Monkey Cage. His new book, I’m a joke and so are you looks at comedy and whether there is something that makes comedians intrinsically different from the rest of humanity, or if humour is an essential characteristic of being human.

Ince has chosen to tour independent bookshops across the nation, and we are lucky enough to get two chances to see him on Saturday. Both the Bookkeeper and Wow and Flutter are tiny venues, so pre-booking and getting there early is recommended. Entry to the event in St Leonards’ Bookkeeper Bookshop is only £3 and the entry fee will be redeemed if you buy a copy of his book.

More information can be found on Facebook – here are the links for the Bookkeeper Bookshop event and the Wow and Flutter event.

The Bookkeeper Bookshop is at 1a Kings Road, St Leonards-on-Sea TN37 6EA – Robin Ince will be there  2–3.30pm.
Wow and Flutter is at 8 Trinity Street, Hastings TN34 1HG
Robin Ince will be there 6.30–8.30pm
