★★★★ANDREW LAWRENCE★★★★ http://www.andrewlawrencecomedy.co.uk/


?Andrew Lawrence has to be seen to be believed?formidably funny? (Time Out)


Lawrence's act exploits his range of voices, includes references to his ginger hair and songs performed on an acoustic guitar. His university debut led on to the Edinburgh fringe, where he was runner up in the 2003 So You Think You're Funny competition. Subsequent wins of the Amused Moose Starsearch, York Comedy Festival New Act of the Year Competition and the BBC's New Act of the Year Competition in 2004 confirmed him as an emerging talent on the UK comedy scene.

He presented his first hour-long comedy show at the 2006 Edinburgh Festival Fringe entitled How to Butcher your Loved Ones. It was nominated for the if.comeddie award (as it was known for that year only) for Best Newcomer. He has returned to the Fringe every year since


"Lawrence is so thorough in assuming his character, that he often comes across as a young man who really does kill the thing he loves then feasts on the gooeyness inside, singing a tune about it as some kind of terrible yet touchingly inevitable catharsis. His victims? losses are truly comedy?s gain"(Scotsman)


'The wonderfully articulate, breakneck prose through which he delivers his punch lines is as spellbinding as it is nasty?if you haven?t seen Andrew Lawrence yet, then make time to do so. If you?ve no heard of him, don?t worry ? you will. From the moment he graced the limelight, Andrew Lawrence owned the stage?absolutely brilliant stuff' (BBC)

★★★★MORGAN BERRY LIVE★★★★


Join rising star Joe Rowntree for an evening hot pot of his debut Edinburgh character comedy show, serving up the rare and wonderful specimen that is Morgan Berry: Pet Bereavement Counselor.


Joe is a stand-up comedian, actor, writer and presenter. His television career started back in 2001 writing put-downs for Anne Robinson on "The Weakest Link". He has hosted 2 UK tours of "Brainiac Live" which culminated at the Hammersmith Apollo after appearing in all six series of the award-winning hit Sky 1 show "Brainiac: Science Abuse.? He has supported Rhod Gilbert & Stephen K Amos on their national tours and recently recorded "Dave's One Night Stand" (Dave), which he was a huge hit on!


Morgan Berry Live


Ever wondered when the problems in your life started? When things got so confusing and out of control. Come and join the world?s first 24 hour Pet Bereavement Counselor- Morgan Berry to find out. He will cure all your problems. Come get fixed and set yourself free!


Full 4 star review of Joe?s Character show in Edinburgh 2013:


Twist your mind to imagine through the impossibilities of The League of Gentlemen being made in the early 80?s. Now thrust into that world of madness a young Vic Reeves from the heady days of Vic Reeves Big Night Out and Noel Fielding from his Mighty Boosh days. Now imagine Vic and Noel having a rancid love child. Joe Rowntree is what that child would have grown up to be, which brings us to modern day Edinburgh?


In short this show is ludicrous. Joe is a character performer who manages to completely throw himself into the role. If you were to speak to him off stage it would be hard to imagine that this nice, polite young man could come out with the nonsense that he does. To say he?s a complete nutter seems like an understatement.


There were whimpers of laughter almost continuously throughout the show and anyone who says they had even an inkling of what was coming next is a filthy liar. Joe worked his way through several very well thought out sections of the show, pausing with great effect to let the madness sink in, and continuing at just the right pace to keep everyone in the crowd constantly giggling. Short of breath and with tear drenched cheeks, we watched the show end as unexpectedly as it began.


Surprising, full of audience participation and riotous laughter, you are completely safe in the knowledge that you have just bore witness to a unique event; this is the very epitome of a great Edinburgh Fringe show. Nothing may ever be the same after watching this performance, or it maybe it will be, but at least you can bank on having some hilarious Joe Rowntree quotes to throw at your mates.


Doors open:7.45pm Show:8pm
