SARA PASCOE
LadsLadsLads
Sara is enjoying a year-long, one-woman stag do. From spiritual retreats, city breaks, life drawing classes and football matches – she has been drunk and lonely everywhere. Following a sell-out live tour of Animal (inspired by her acclaimed book of the same name), the multi award-winning comedian and star of Live at The Apollo, Mock the Week, QI and Taskmaster, returns to Edinburgh with a brand-new (best ever) stand-up show. ‘Pascoe’s lively mind teases out big questions with intelligence, silliness and self-deprecation’ (Guardian). ‘Hilarious confessions of a forensic mind’ (Evening Standard)
FERN BRADY
Suffer, Fools!
Following two shows that sold out through word of mouth alone, Scottish comedian Fern is back for another Scottish hour. Scottish. As seen on English comedian Russell Howard’s Stand Up Central, English comedian Stewart Lee’s Alternative Comedy Experience and Viceland’s new series Brexit Stage Left. God, I hope I can cry over a dead relative or come across as sincere this year. As heard on BBC Radio 4’s State of the Nations and BBC Scotland’s Breaking the News.
“An astounding hour” – ★★★★★ The List
“Quick witted acerbic stand-up’” – ★★★★ The Skinny
“Great comic sensibility with moments of sparkling verve” -The Guardian
