AMERICAN A**HOLES: ESCAPE TO EDINBURGH to Bring US Comedy to Fringe

The American A**holes, formed of three headlining US stand-up comedians are bringing their show, American A**holes: Escape to Edinburgh to Fringe for a strictly limited-run this 20-29th August.

Stand-up comedians Lauren LoGiudice, Dannielle Slaughter, and Wayne Charles II developed AMERICAN A**HOLES after meeting on the New York comedy circuit and discovering shared thematic interests in identity, culture, and contemporary American life from their respective Queer, Indigenous, and African American perspectives.

The show combines stand-up comedy with conversational improvisation as the trio explores topics including politics, race, sexuality, relationships, and social behavior through differing personal viewpoints. AMERICAN A**HOLES: ESCAPE TO EDINBURGH uses humor and audience interaction to examine contradiction, self-awareness, and cultural tensions in modern America.

Each performer brings a distinct comedic style to the production. Lauren LoGiudice blends satire and autobiographical storytelling, Dannielle Slaughter incorporates observational humor and social commentary, and Wayne Charles II focuses on conversational storytelling and personal experiences.

Together, the performers create a collaborative comedy format centered on contrasting perspectives, with the show aiming to encourage reflection through humor and discussion.

American A**holes: Escape to Edinburgh is performing at Edinburgh Festival Fringe 20-29th August at 22:10pm (60 mins), Bottle Room at Just The Tonic at The Mash House (venue number 288). Tickets are available to purchase online from edinburgh.justthetonic.com or the venue box office, and edfringe.com or the Fringe Society at 180 High Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1QS.
