2017 Edinburgh Fringe
Nathan Cassidy: The Man in the Arena
Malcolm Hardee Award nominee and Buxton Fringe Best Show winner (and triple nominee) explores bravery in a volatile world. No gimmicks, no f*cking about, no prisoners. As Roosevelt said: 'it's not the critic who counts, it's the man in the arena'. As Obama said after Trump's win: 'it's time to brush ourselves off and get back in the arena'. 'A great comedian' **** (BroadwayBaby.com). 'The entire second row is pissed... there are only two rows' (Chortle.co.uk). 'The audience loved it... inspired me to liken the comedian to one of the greats' **** (theMumble.net).

Roosevelt said, 'It's not the critic who counts, it's the man in the arena'. Nathan is back at the Edinburgh Fringe with two solo shows. The first is a comic play performed at 'C cubed'. The second is the glorious return of his stand up at 'The Free Sisters'. Enjoy 15 minutes of stand up and chat with the award winning trickster.

I write a new show every year so it's what's going on around us now that I've drawn upon for my new show - I cover terrorism, politics, Syria, 2 mins on comedy criticism which silly people will say is what the show is about, and of course some obligatory dated references.
