Edinburgh Preview: Annie McGrath & Gareth Richards

Presented by Avalon Promotions Ltd.

Date
Friday 16 June 2017

Join us in June for Edinburgh Fringe previews at Blue Elephant Theatre!

Annie McGrath: Ambivert

After last year’s joke did so well (Dave’s Top Ten Funniest Jokes of the Fringe 2016), Annie returns to Edinburgh with another one. Annie has written and performed on ITV2, Channel 4, BBC Radio 4 Extra and BBC Radio Wales.

‘A real master of deadpan… delightfully dry’ (Skinny)

‘A flair for perfectly cutting short silliness with deadpan punchlines… Hilarious’ ★★★★★ (EdFringeReview.com)

‘Beautiful timing and spot-on delivery’ ★★★★ (TheTab.com)

‘McGrath’s dry sense of humour together with cool deliveries works a treat… Ridiculously funny’ ★★★★ (TheEdinburghReporter.co.uk)

Gareth Richards

Gareth Richards’ hilarious stand-up, silly jokes and gorgeously low-key comedy songs have made him an instant favourite on the comedy circuit. In 2010 he was nominated for Foster’s Edinburgh Comedy Award Best Newcomer.

Gareth has appeared on Russell Howard’s Good News, Live at the Electric (BBC3) and live on Radio 1. Gareth co-hosted Frank Skinner’s Sony award-winning Absolute Radio show for two years and supported Frank on his 2014 tour.

Don’t miss the chance to see Gareth try out new material for his next Edinburgh Fringe show.

‘A delightful hour of comedy’ The Guardian

‘A quietly-clever craftsman with a big future’ Bruce Dessau, Evening Standard

‘His material has a delicious otherworldly quality’ ★★★★ Chortle.co.uk
