Marcus Brigstocke ‘Why the Long Face?’ MARCUS BRIGSTOCKE ‘WHY THE LONG FACE?’ ** AUTUMN UK TOUR ANNOUNCED ** ** TICKETS ON SALE NOW ** “Dazzling, inspired, perfectly observed. I’ve yet to see anything funnier” – Daily Telegraph “…. Charming, hilarious and utterly refreshing” - Sunday Mirror ‘Long face, not short on laughs’ - The Evening Standard Award-winning comedian and broadcaster Marcus Brigstocke is heading out on a brand new UK tour in autumn 2016 with his eagerly awaited new stand up show ‘Why The Long Face?’ Why? Because of austerity, Donald Trump, cheese strings, George Osborne, being single, Isis, The Daily Mail, tax avoiders and the inexplicable popularity of nail bars. That's why. Come to this show - last time there was a fire and almost no one died! One of Britain’s finest comedians and broadcasters, Marcus’ talent was noted early on in his career in 1996 when he won the BBC New Comedian Award at the Edinburgh Festival. He is now regarded as a major comedy, writing and acting talent, performing stand up nationally to sell out audiences around the UK and globally at international comedy festivals. As well as his sold out comedy tours he can constantly be seen and heard with numerous appearances on UK television and radio. BBC Radio 4 has become somewhat of a second home to Marcus with regular appearances on I’m Sorry I Haven’t A Clue, The Now Show and Just A Minute plus his recent award-winning radio series The Brig Society. He has also written and recorded three series and four specials of his hit Radio 4 sitcom show Giles Wemmbley-Hogg Goes Off. Marcus has notched up an impressive list of TV credits including his role as team captain on Argumental (Dave), and host of The Late Edition and I’ve Never Seen Star Wars (BBC4). Other appearances include; Have I Got News For You (BBC1), QI (BBC2), The Jump (Channel 4), Sorry I’ve Got No Head (BBC1) and The Late Edition (BBC4). Marcus will also be returning to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with ‘Why The Long Face?’ for a limited 10 night run this August, performing at the Pleasance Courtyard at the 5th-14th August at 9.30pm. www.marcusbrigstocke.com /@marcusbrig / www.offthekerb.co.uk /@OffTheKerb For all press enquiries, press tickets, interviews requests and images please contact: Alison Peters or Hannah Allan at Alison Peters PR [email protected] 07810 238 851 / [email protected] 07903 539 829 MARCUS BRIGSTOCKE -

    MARCUS BRIGSTOBRIGSTOCCCCKEKEKEKE The Brig Society ** Autumn UK tour dates announced ** “Dazzling, inspired, perfectly observed. I’ve yet to see anything funnier” - Daily Telegraph “Intelligent, dark, subtle stuff” - The Observer One of Britain’s finest comedians and broadcasters, Marcus BrigstockeBrigstocke,will be taking his hotly anticipated new show “The Brig Society” out on tour this autumn. The award-winning comedian is a firm favourite with comedy fans and his new show promises to be as quick-witted as his much loved catalogue of work. “The Brig Society” will, through the persuasive medium of jokes and anecdotes tackle the trivialities and complexities of life with joyful silliness and vengeful ire. This is The Brig Society. An invitation to re-engineer all the crappy systems that don't help us to be happy, live well, listen to good music, dance and eat whatever cheese we want to eat... Marcus will be performing “The Brig Society ” at the Edinburgh Fringe in August (nightly at the Assembly Rooms, Rainy Hall) with the UK tour due to kick off in mid September. In early September Marcus will be reprising his fantastically received role as King Arthur for the West End Production of award-winning musical Spamalot . Marcus’s talent was noted early on in his career in 1996 when he won the BBC New Comedian Award at the Edinburgh Festival. He is now regarded as a major comedy, writing and acting talent, performing stand up nationally to sell out audiences around the UK and globally at international comedy festivals. BBC Radio 4 has become somewhat of a second home to him with regular appearances on The Now Show and Just A Minute , and he has notched up an impressive list of TV credits including team captain on Argumental (DAVE) and the host of BBC4’s The Late Edition and I’ve Never Seen Star Wars.

  • Deborah Frances- White: Half a Can of Worms Pleasance Dome – 10 Dome, Potterow, Edinburgh, EH8 9AL
    jSo Comedy presents Deborah Frances- White: Half a Can of Worms Pleasance Dome – 10 Dome, Potterow, Edinburgh, EH8 9AL Friday 1st – Monday 25th August 2014 (except 12th), 3.45pm Comedian Deborah Frances-White was adopted when she was only ten days old. Until late 2012, she knew nothing about her birth family. Then she stumbled across some information that led her to embark on a round-the-clock treasure hunt, drawn into her past like a magnet. This is her true story. Turns out, you can’t open half a can of worms! Armed with only her birth mother’s maiden name, Deborah turned internet detective to track her down. At first Deborah said ‘I just wanted to look – I wasn't at all sure I wanted to contact anybody. I wanted to see who they were and what they looked like.’ But, her curiosity soon became a compulsion as she delved into the online worlds of Google, ancestry.com, Facebook, Pinterest and YouTube. There is no doubt that this quest was a gamble - full of false leads, hilarious disappointments, hysterical revelations and, most importantly, the consequences of her discoveries. When Deborah finally made contact with her birth mother, she exposed a part of the past that had been hidden for decades. Half a Can of Worms is a raw and emotional show, by turns hilarious and heartbreaking (The Guardian). Discover Deborah’s mysterious past, inspirational present and inevitable future as her story unfolds. Deborah will also be bringing back her hit late night improv show Voices in Your Head, each weekend at the Gilded Balloon, with a host of special guests.
