5.00PM – LOU CONRAN
Host of Radio 4 Extra's Comedy Club and critically acclaimed podcast Spit or Swallow. BBC New Talent One to Watch Hot Lister, Lou Conran is a superlative storyteller and masterful at spinning a yarn. Voted Best Compere 2020/21 by her peers in the Comics' Comic Award
6.30pm – CONNOR BURNS
Brilliant stand-up from one of the fastest rising new stars of Scottish comedy. Catch Connor before he's playing stadiums. Connor has been supporting top acts like Gary Meikle and Larry Dean on tour. “Absolutely cracking… Great material with fantastic execution”…THE STAND
8.00pm – Lauren Pattison: It Is What It Is
Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Newcomer nominee Lauren is back with a brand-new show. She is reluctant to say what it is about because if the last year has taught her anything, it's life can change fast… it is what it is. Let’s just say sometimes you need to fall apart to rebuild into exactly who you were meant to be.
As seen on Comedy Central at the Comedy Store, Roast Battle and supporting Katherine Ryan’s tour.
“Razor wit and brutal honesty” *****…List.
“A breath of feisty fresh air” *****…Herald.
9.30pm BRENNAN REECE
Join Brennan as he completes his work in progress for his new show.
Brennan Reece is one of the happiest comedians around; you would be too if you’d been on 'Live At The Apollo', 'Roast Battle', 'Celeb Coach Trip' and nominated for an Edinburgh Comedy Award. And he usually is happy. He loves making lists, buying himself flowers and having nights in with his Mum. That was until last year where he found himself making a list of reasons why he didn’t deserve to be in a world full of flowers and Mums and lists.
'Crowded' is a hilariously heart-breaking show about how the world can get you down, and the reasons you find to pick yourself back up again.
“Hilarious rubber faced bright young talent”…The Stage
“A beautiful raucous touching hour”…Chortle
