Sean Hughes: Ducks and Other Mistakes I've Made
After selling out in 2009, Sean Hughes has been on the road for a whole year and has been perfecting his new show. At its absolute peak, he brings it to Edinburgh for two weeks only! A household name with his dark, explosive style of quick-fire audience banter who has appeared in endless TV shows. Sean recently returned to his first love, stand-up and is back at his absolute best. 'High-calibre comedy as it should be' (Evening Standard). Book early! 'Lines to kill for and a presence to match' (List).
