COMEDIAN Reginald D Hunter brings his brand new show to Dunfermline next month.

After a successful year performing across Europe, his UK tour stops at the Alhambra Theatre on Wednesday May 17 where he'll perform 'Some People vs Reginald D Hunter'.

In the years that the American stand-up has been living and performing in the UK, his searingly honest material has garnered him a popular fan base that spans the generations.

In the past 12 months he has appeared in a critically acclaimed tour of Ireland and has appeared on TV shows including 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown, QI, never Mind the Buzzcocks and Have I Got News For You.

He also starred in the popular three-part BBC2 series Reginald D Hunter’s Songs Of The South, which documented his epic road trip from North Carolina to New Orleans through 150 years of American popular song.

His debut DVD – Reginald D Hunter Live – was one of the top sellers in the DVD comedy charts as was his follow up, Reginald D Hunter: In The Midst of Crackers.

Originally from Georgia, in the south of the USA, the comedian has been on our shores for just under two decades and in that time he has become one of the industry’s best-known performers for his distinctive take on subjects, including race and sexuality.

Often considered to be controversial, Reginald's material is always meticulously thought out and he has never been afraid to face challenging issues head on, even when the focus is on his own principles or beliefs.

The show starts at 8pm and tickets cost £23. Contact the box office on 01383 740384 or go to alhambradunfermline.com
