2019 Edinburgh Fringe
Gareth Mutch: The Old Man in the Carvery
This local boy is well worth the climb to the Attic room of the Gilded Balloon Rose Theatre. Once you've stopped wheezing from the exertion, you'll be wheezing with laughter as the jokes keep coming thick and fast.
Mutch returns to the Fringe with a hilarious new hour chock-full of his trademark comedic tales of personal woe. Gareth is looking back to an encounter with an old man in a carvery that has haunted him for years. Does this meeting hold the answers to who he will inevitably become? Or perhaps even more terrifyingly who he already has? Does Gareth want to grow old or just live at home with his parents forever? 'Among the big hitters of Scottish stand-up' (DailyBusinessGroup.co.uk).

With a little over two weeks until the start of the Fringe, I suspect many of us are all still trying to plough through the programme. Faster readers will probably be around ten per cent of their way through the comedy section.
