THE UNIVERSE ACCORDING TO STEVEN APPLEBY

Enter the weird brain of Steven Appleby, whose uninhibited imagination and instinctive creativity have made him one of Britain’s most visible and delightfully eccentric comic artists, illustrating for the Guardian and Telegraph and a wide range of books, including his latest self-help manual Negative Affirmations. Appleby will be probed and dismantled by writer and broadcaster David Quantick. He also chooses his favourite animated adaptations, including the screening of a classic Captain Star episode. (See also Theatre for Crocs in Frocks). Steven Appleby will be available to sign copies of his latest book Negative Affirmations in the ICA Bar after his talk between 6.00pm and 6.30pm, and again between 7.30pm and 8.00pm before his play Crocs In Frocks begins.

Where: ICA, The Mall, London
When: Sunday, October 8, 2006 - 5pm to 6pm
