THE STUDIO

BBC New Comedy Award finalist and writer for SNL UK returns following his sold-out debut, with a romantic new hour. A summer fling in hospitality spirals into something far messier. Ayo explores summer romance and the cost of chasing your dreams. Effortlessly charming and razor-sharp, Ayo blends big laughs with beautifully observed storytelling about work, desire and the chaos of catching feelings when you really shouldn't.

Hot on the heels of her critically acclaimed 2025 show Side Eye, Rachel Fairburn is back with new personalities and some old favourites for you to love and hate. Expect biting social commentary and lots of big laughs. Co-host of International smash hit podcast All Killa No Filla and as seen on Live at the Apollo (BBC Two), Alan Davies: As Yet Untitled (Dave), Richard Osman's House of Games (BBC Two).

Multi award-winning 'comic genius' (Scotsman) and the new star of Taskmaster (Channel 4), Phil Ellis returns to Edinburgh on his first full national stand-up tour. Following his three big award wins at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe, Phil, the very definition of funny bones, presents his brand-new show Bath Mat. Jam-packed with laugh-out-loud profound silliness, superbly crafted gags and constant surprises.

Fringe legend returns with his first new show in four years. Hilarious stand-up about the human condition, about how little we know about what’s going on inside our bodies and our minds, and about what it’s like to have an endoscopy on Remembrance Sunday at exactly 11am. Some poems too. Maybe a few songs.

Stuart was as scared about the climate crisis as you are. But he did the reading, and now he's terrified. Come and watch him do something about it. In his most honest, hilarious, and hopeful hour yet, Stuart Goldsmith (Live At The Apollo, Netflix is a Joke, Conan) applies his 'expert stand-up' (Sunday Times) to the apparent collapse of absolutely everything.

Work-in-progress show from ‘the pre-eminent comic political polemicist of our time’ **** (Guardian). The world's in chaos. Inequality is widening, autocracy is rising, political parties are collapsing. In these divided times, what this country desperately needs is Angry Humour from a Really Nice Guy.

Eric Rushton brings a brand-new stand-up show to the Fringe after the sell-out success of his last show, Innkeeper. Winner: Channel 4 Sean Lock Comedy Award. Winner: Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year Award. Nominated: ISH Edinburgh Comedy Awards for Best Show. 'No wonder it sold out. A thinking man’s comedian with a gift for subverting standard tropes hilariously' ***** (One4Review.co.uk).

In her debut hour, Anna recounts tales of hibernation, loss and what to do when life gives you ferrets. Winner of the BBC New Comedy Award. Finalist of the Sean Lock Comedy Award. Co-host of the Early Worms podcast with Phil Ellis. From BBC Radio 4’s One Person Found This Helpful, Live From the UK, and Kiri’s Comedy Club.

Sofie won a comedy award in 2015 and she thinks you all stopped talking about it too soon. Anyways, despite being constantly online from 2016-2024, she never saw it coming that the fascists would be taking over. She did so many feminist tweets to prevent it. How can this be happening? 'Eye-catchingly odd and disarmingly honest' (Independent).

BRUV. The break-out star of Taskmaster and Mr Bigstuff is donning her swaggest hijab and serving up her one-of-a-kind and award-winning stand-up. Expect strong language and stereotype smashing. As seen on Live At The Apollo, QI, The Last Leg, The Jonathan Ross Show and Donkey. As heard on Off Menu and Fatiha El-Ghorri’s A Match Made Inshallah for BBC Radio 4.
