Tom Price presents his highly-anticipated debut solo Edinburgh Festival Fringe show. Can optimism, hope and love survive perm clubs, broken arms and his Mum playing chicken with the school bus? It has to. If it doesn't this Labrador-eyed layabout may be just about ready to set down his bone and say "when".

A show about being utterly terrified of embarrassment and yet having to experience it on an almost daily basis due to the ineptitudes of those people supposedly put on this Earth to cherish and protect you.

And how, over time you can grow up to realise that nothing is really all that embarrassing...

Not even a sex scene with Billie Piper.

Tom was a finalist for Daily Telegraph Open Mic Award, Take the Mike Competition (for ITV) and Paramount New Act Competition. He supported Stephen Merchant on his UK tour in 2008 and was part of the cast of Fringe First Award winning play, A Very Naughty Boy.

His TV credits include My Family and Torchwood (both BBC1), Secret Diary Of A Call Girl (ITV2), Swinging (series 1 & 2) and The Movie Lounge (both Channel 5), and Star Stories and Law of The Playground (both Channel 4).

His credits also include feature films Hereafter (dir. Clint Eastwood) and The Boat That Rocked (dir. Richard Curtis), as well as Torchwood - Asylum, Ed Reardon's Week, Rigor Mortis (Series 1, 2 & 3) and Mitch Benn's Crimes Against Music (all BBC Radio 4).
