Edinburgh Preview Comedy Show with John Hastings and Mark Dolan

With the Edinburgh Festival approaching in August, some of the finest comedians in the land are working out their new shows, and the We Are Funny Previews series is a season of opportunities to "see them first" for a fraction of what it would cost after the Summer.

The show will be kicked off by an MC at 8pm and shortly after John Hastings will take the stage for up to an hour. There will then be a short break, the MC and then Mark Dolan will run his new show, while we aim to finish no later than 1030pm.

John Hastings was born three months premature and the first grandson in his family so basically he was coddled and never given any sort of responsibility. All of that changed with the birth of his nephew and John was made the godfather. Come see how that child brought John and his father closer together and discover why the NHS is really not that bad.
