Quoted as 'the real bloke from the book 'The Curious incident of the dog in the night time' Robert White is making an odd and hilarious comeback after his successful debut at The Edinburgh Fringe in 2010 with 'THE CURIOUS INCIDENT OF THE GAG AND THE GUN-CRIME....PLUS MORE STUFF'. The show runs at The Hive - Big Cave, July 31st - August 24th (not 11th & 18th) at 5:30pm (6:30pm). Contact the Box office at 0131 226 0000 or go online at www.edfringe.com.

Before Robert entered the world of comedy he went through 67 jobs in seven years, went to prison for a misunderstood practical joke, and wrote symphonies for his sock puppet. Diagnosed with asperger's later in life, Robert has experienced some very odd encounters and events. In this brand new show we see how the one and only asperger's, gay, dyslexic, cross-lateral, web- toed, ex-con, musical comedian turned the comedy from his life, into a life of comedy.

Winner of the Malcolm Hardee main award for comic originality in 2010, Robert returns this year with his eclectic off the wall jokes, improvisatory songs, barely-believable stories and interactive music. Join Robert for an hour of insightful comedy about the obscure and extreme!

Find out how Robert dealt with the world and the people in it before being diagnosed with asperger's. How one very misunderstood practical joke got him arrested and put in prison, and his inability to take hints.

As well as being the winner of The Malcolm Hardee award 2010, Robert was a finalist of the prestigious Hackney Empire New Act of the year award. He is a sought after act who regularly performs in big clubs, little clubs and those in-between around the UK and abroad. He is a versatile performer and writer having written for other comedians.

Come see the world through Robert Whites eyes, and strangely wish they were yours.
