Is this your first time to Edinburgh?

I have been to Edinburgh for the full run every year since 2013.

In 2014 I won the panel prize with the show Funz and Gamez.
In 2014 I was nominated for best newcomer with my (now ex) sketch group Gein’s Family Giftshop.
In 2016 I performed my first solo hour to 5* reviews. (James Meehan – Class Act)
In 2017 I performed my second solo hour (James Meehan – As If I Hadn’t Slept)
This is my third hour.

Tell us about your show.

I wrote my show and am producing it myself.
I hope to tour it afterwards.

The show is loosely about identity and not leaving the flat for 6 months after a torrid old time involving disasterous decisions with work and the people I chose to work with.

What should your audience see at the festivals after they’ve seen your show?
