INTERNATIONALLY acclaimed stand-up Craig Campbell has extended his first solo national tour to take in Fareham’s Ashcroft Arts Centre on Wednesday.

In the past year, he has been nominated Best Headliner at The Chortle Awards, supported Frankie Boyle on his 120-date nationwide tour and performed on Dave’s One Night Stand, Russell Howard’s Good News and Michael Macintyre’s Comedy Roadshow.

He was also responsible for easing the contractions of an expectant mother who laughed so hard at his performance on Dave’s One Night Stand – which detailed an encounter with a badger – that her waters broke.

As a natural raconteur, Craig is able to find humour in the mundane.
