3pm Tom Mayhew: Trash Rich

Fresh from Radio 4 (Tom Mayhew is Benefit Scum), critically acclaimed comedian Tom was planning to write a show that was less frustrated, less political…the cost-of-living crisis screwed that. ‘It is genuine, powerful, political stuff. These are four stars for a voice that should be heard more. Four stars for comedy shining a light on some grim, unjust places’ **** The Scotsman. ‘Mayhew is passionate, articulate and – above all else – hilarious. His jokes are punchy, sharp and forthcoming. Despite the often weighty subject matter, laughs are never too far apart.’ **** The Skinny

4.30pm Christy Coysh: Bangarang!

What happens when you give a bearded, northern lad with a voice of silk and an ass that won’t quit a loop station and a room at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe? You get an hour of R’n’B/rap infused comedy like nothing you’ve ever seen (unless you’ve seen previews in which case it will be similar). I’ll even conjure up some comedy bangers from your stupid suggestions on the spot. I’ll be blowing minds and melting hearts every night so feel free to join me. ‘Energetic and viscerally funny’ (List). Winner of the Musical Comedy Awards 2021.

6pm Jen Ives – Peak Trans

As the discourse on trans people becomes more toxic in the UK – comedian, trans woman and nuisance Jen Ives is here to sort it all out, hun. Is JK Rowling the devil? Can a man love a trans woman and still truly be straight? And how long can Jen get away with taking maternity leave from work? Finalist: Funny Women, Laughing Horse, Leicester Mercury. ‘Great company’ (Chortle.co.uk). ‘Jen Ives is a wonderful comedian. I’ve discovered her comedy in recent years, and I can’t get enough of it.’ (James Acaster).
