For Dane Baptiste the last 18 months have been non–stop for the Independent’s ‘Face to Watch in 2015’ winner.
He has had incredible success of his debut show Citizen Dane which saw him nominated for Best Newcomer at both the Foster’s Comedy Awards at 2014’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival and again in 2015’s Chortle Awards. After this he has completed two sold out runs at The Soho Theatre (with additional dates added due to phenomenal demand), written and starred in his own sitcom for the BBC and performed at the Melbourne Comedy Festival. All of which is kind of a big deal!
He’s also become somewhat of a media darling with with appearances on your TV screens in Celebrity Squares (ITV1), Seann Walsh’s Late Night Comedy Spectacular (BBC3), Sweat the Small Stuff (BBC3), Virtually Famous (E4) and Live from The Comedy Store (Comedy Central).
Dane is regarded by many as ‘the next big thing’ so make sure you catch him while you can!
