The countdown to Edinburgh has begun. Depending on when you decide to start counting down. I’m doing a birthday party for my fringe show, you’re all invited (Not you, Greg). I have three more previews coming up:

14th July Machine No.3, London

17th July Comedy In The Yurt, St. Albans

31st July The Stand Comedy Club,  Edinburgh

Other Fringe News

This year although I’m only doing two weeks of my show, I’ll be in Edinburgh all month (getting money off my mum, annoying my sister, etc) and I’ll also be a key member of  Comedian Cinema Club at The Tron, as well as returning to  The Weirdos Harry Potter Night, and popping up in numerous other shows.

 

Eurgh, you guys, promotion is really hard. Eczema is flaring up bad today.

 

I made a video lecture with Turtle Canyon Comedy about Victorian Lectures. It’s all true.

Guys, the play I’m in opens on Tuesday. I’ve got LOADS of words and I play a Yes voter, it’s been really hard to get into character. Come and see me doing proper acting and stuff

My 2016 Fringe Show, ‘Happy Birthday Katie Lewis!’ is now on sale! Find tickets here!

Some lovely new photos by my friend Ana Pio, who’s currently finishing her amazing  film ‘Eden’

Secondly, myself, Will Seaward and Matt Highton have started an exciting new podcast, The Mythsteries Podcast, where we’ll be having on location discussions about the myths and mysteries of Britain – episode one, haunted houses! Our first episode should be out by the end of April, stay tuned for more.

I’m back at the GICF, and this year I’m bringing Joz Norris with me. Info and tickets at the link below
