Edinburgh Fringe
Daniel Foxx: Villain
A slick hour that looks set to become one of the hits of this year's festival. Daniel Foxx possesses the full skillset needed to become a famous comedy star... witness it all in action here, as he creates big laughs in the process of discussing topics such as queer representation.
People's princess and TikTok starlet Daniel Foxx delivers his stand-up hour debut with a show about childhood, Tilda Swinton and bullying (but in a chic way). With his trademark wit and grandmother's pearls, he's taking us back to the 2000s, when the Special K diet was all the rage and the only queer representation was Jafar. As seen on BBC One, BBC Three, Comedy Central UK and on Instagram and TikTok (The Supervillain's Gay Assistant). Tour support for Josh Widdicombe, Rosie Jones, Sofie Hagen and Judi Love. 'Fabulous' (Nigella Lawson).
