From the man who brought you the international hit shows A R*ddy Brief History Of Swearing and A Surprisingly Tasteful Show About Nudity, Alexis Dubus has always performed shows about subjects that fascinate him. This year it's his own wanderlust.

A keen traveller, Alexis will be sharing some of his former tales from the road (the funny ones). From Ecuador to Morocco, from the Sahara Desert to the Nevada Desert join him for stories of friendship, heartbreak and nutcases.

Some of these stories have already proved to be huge hits at Storytellers' Club in London, the Edinburgh Fringe and Melbourne Comedy Festival. Now they're rounded up for the first time in one hour of fascinating stand-up storytelling.

May include traces of UFOs, truckers, cockneys, the Nevada desert, bean festivals and the Dutch.

Alexis has had international success all over Europe, Asia, Australia NZ and America and later in 2012 his travel documentary with Swift Films, End Of The Road, will be shown on the Discovery Channel.
