This Sunday's show is an Edinburgh Festival Preview Special featuring full length shows from Paul Sinha and Tim Renkow


Paul Sinha - "Postcards From the Z List"

Critically acclaimed Edinburgh favourite Paul Sinha returns to the Edinburgh Festival after a self-imposed exile during which real life took over.

Looking back, life as a travelling single gaysian delivering lefty liberal jokes was quite straightforward. Now he has to juggle the responsibilities of being an uncle, being in an actual relationship for the first time in twenty years, and being that bloke, from that quiz, in that poorly fitting white suit. It’s not easy.

‘One of the most technically gifted comics on the British circuit’ (Scotsman).

‘Hilariously funny, passionate and articulate’ (Chortle.co.uk).

‘Honest, heartfelt, uplifting' (List).


Tim Renkow – "Kim Jong-Un, Mohammed, Jesus And Other Power Hungry Maniacs"

A show about power and the relatable struggles of small town life: boredom, noisy neighbours... oh and drug dealers, murder and neo-Nazis.

Winner of several awards in 2014 including: Amused Moose Laugh Off, Leicester Square’s New Comedian of the Year and nominated Chortle Best Newcomer. Also Guardian Critics Choice Fringe 2014.

'Compelling and provocative act' (Scotsman).

'Wickedly dark sense of humour' (Leicester Mercury).

'Funny writer of strong, proper gags' (Chortle.co.uk).
