Acclaimed comedian Reginald D Hunter is set to return to the Highlands later this month.

The American funnyman, a veteran of several past Inverness performances, will take to the Ironworks stage on April 28 - one of four Scottish dates.

The performance is part of his rescheduled Bombe Shuffleur UK and Ireland tour

Promoters Mick Perrin Worldwide say the comic’s subject matter will fearlessly offer his own take on global issues with “no time for niceties”.

Three-time Perrier Award nominated Hunter, on announcing the tour, said: “I am eager to return to touring simply because it took 35 weeks of lockdown to remember who I am.

“Before the fame, before the money, before the lawyers, before the star-chasers, before three national lockdowns.

“Back to basics. #newday #bombeshuffleur.”

The agency’s spokeswoman said: “Unafraid to tackle head on the subjects the rest of us skirt around, Reginald is the voice of his generation – searingly honest, brutally funny and uniquely placed to commentate on the unfolding meltdown of life as we know it.

“Buckle up for this unmissable hour of stand up from one of comedy’s true greats!"

More than 20 years since moving to the UK from the US, the comedian has forged a string television following on shows including Live at the Apollo (BBC Two), Have I Got News for You (BBC One) and 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown (C4), while drawing widespread acclaim for his two series for the BBC, Reginald D Hunter’s Songs of the South and Reginald D Hunter’s Songs of the Border.
