Tickets only available via Funny Way To Be Comedy. Book Tickets for Sam Nicoresti & James Trickey.
Two Work in Progress Shows curated by Mark Watson for The Edinburgh Festival – This is set to be a really rounded Fringe-y double bill.
Sam Nicoresti “Baby Doomer”
A glistening new stand-up show from the LSQ Theatre New Comedian winner and Chortle Awards nominee about losing your mind, finding it again and the hunt for the perfect skirt suit. During a stressful house move, burgeoning trans icon Sam Nicoresti felt themselves leave their body. From a comedy night in a care home to the standing stones of Cornwall, this is the story of the journey home. Baby Doomer is the follow-up to the acclaimed Wokeflake
Best Show nominee, Leicester Comedy Festival 2025.
“One of the definitive documents of the trans experience in stand-up.”…Chortle.
James Trickey “Don’t Count On Me”
James Trickey is throwing it all away. A hotly anticipated debut hour from award winning new act and chartered accountant (but in a cool way) which explores what it means to risk everything. Expect to laugh, learn and crucially, laugh again.
