Comedy Double Bill: Edinburgh Previews
Alexandra Haddow & Richard Spalding
Alexandra Haddow
The news has been on fire for so long now we’re probably out of petrol. Should we all just embrace societal collapse and enter our Last Days of Rome era? This is a show about politics, sex, ageing, nihilism and maybe hope. In a world where we’re always told to pick a side, is there a third option? Best New Show nominee (Leicester Comedy Festival, 2023) British Comedy Guide recommended. ‘Haddow is going places’ (London Evening Standard). ‘One of the most exciting new acts on the circuit’ (Frankie Boyle). ‘A whole lot of laughs’ (Skinny).

Richard Spalding
We’re all alive and we’re all going to die. Let’s have a laugh with it, shall we?
Join award-winning comedian Rich Spalding for his hotly anticipated debut hour. A stand-up show about fear and boredom, legacy and regret and, ultimately, the universal experience of working for a living and dying sometime after.
