Comedian Matthew Highton Presents Insufficient Memory
by BWW News Desk - May 11, 2018
After his gran got dementia (funny start) Matthew Highton sought to make sense of the news, to figure out what makes us US and if it even matters in the end? Using his own life to chart how his rougher edges in formative years, growing up in Oldham, led to a life performing, he explores the notion whether we would be an entirely different person if we grew up even half a mile away?

by BWW News Desk - May 11, 2018

Short & Curly Brings 'Young At Start' to Scotland
by BWW News Desk - May 11, 2018
Youth: we've all had it, some of us have still got it. Curly barely remembers what IT is! Convinced that fame and fortune is only reserved for the young, Curly is in full panic mode to get his youth back. Meanwhile, his shorter half, Short, knows he's got it all wrong. She wants to teach him to learn to appreciate the present; and she should know, she's just had major heart surgery.

Sunil Patel Brings 'Megalodon' to Scotland
by BWW News Desk - May 11, 2018
Having been observing the white tribe for sometime now, Sunil Patel is ready to present his thesis. Why white people can't be themselves unless they are in fancy dress, why the best thing about Christmas is not the presents and why fearing the fall of Western civilisation is a futile worry given we're all actually cockroaches anyway, Sunil has all the answers. An outsider on the inside, Sunil fears he may have been unwittingly integrated because his car has a National Trust sticker he can't remove. But before he delves into his findings, he will do five minutes on butt-holes. Megalodon is an hour filled with unique observations and anecdotes of parental misgivings that just might prove that Sunil Patel is Britain's answer to Noam Chomsky, for the microwave meal generation.

Faye Treacy Brings 'The Problem With Faye Treacy' to Edinburgh
by BWW News Desk - May 11, 2018
When asked by her little sister for some career advice, Faye realised she'd spent the last half of her 20s trying to make trombone comedy work. Upon further reflection, Faye wondered what was it about her past that has today made her want to take an instrument more synonymous in jazz cafes than a ramshackle room in Edinburgh for a month? Was it to rebel against her punk rock father, just to be heard in house shared with multiple siblings because her mother wanted to outdo Madonna?

Christian Finnegan Comes to The Gilded Balloon
by BWW News Desk - May 11, 2018
Shop with a bag for life, wear fair trade shoes, recycle your yoghurt pots, go vegan, recycle your vegan yoghurt pots, retweet the # that'll dismantle the patriarchy. The ingredients that go into what makes a person good can seem endless and a lot of hard work. Who's the 'better' human being: the guy who gives to charity but cheats on his girlfriend or the sweet old lady who loves animals but voted to keep the immigrants out? But better still, what is good and how do we truly know if we are?

Ross Brierley Brings 'Accumulator' to Underbelly
by BWW News Desk - May 11, 2018
We often dream of landing the big one, where we can give the middle finger to the man and say we're going it alone. In 2010, after betting £10 on a horse racing accumulator, Ross Brierley hit the jackpot and decided to quit his job and become a professional gambler. What followed was a year of the inevitable high stakes and crushing lows. In the space of twelve months, he'd lost most of his money and some of his mind.
