Matt is an NHS doctor - what a hero! Also a fast-rising comedian, finalist in the Leicester Square New Comedian and Hackney Empire New Act competition. The son of Jamaican and English parents, in this highly anticipated debut Hutchinson asks: how hostile is the environment in Britain? Who is welcome here? What does it mean to 'integrate'? Against all odds, he finds hilarious answers. As heard on BBC Radio 4, as seen on BBC Three and NextUp. 'An assured presence' (Chortle.co.uk). 'Safe hands' (Chortle.co.uk... and some patients).

Matt Hutchinson's Fantasy Fringe: At home, fun and not entirely uphill

Matt Hutchinson has some wild dreams about the Edinburgh Fringe being fun, affordable and not exhausting? We've had a Space Fringe and a Medieval Fringe but this may actually be the most unreasonable scenario yet...

EdFringe Talk: Matt Hutchinson: Hostile

"I should emphasise it's mostly nowhere near as serious as that sounds - and a lot of it has ended up being about having a baby (my daughter is 15 months old)."
