Bruce Fummey is bringing Stories of Scotland home to East Lothian

Bruce has spent fifteen years performing Scottish history-themed stand-up shows around the world. He’s spent the last few years asking YouTube audiences to “Let me tell you this story” as his hugely popular YouTube channel, Scotland History Tours, amassed an incredible 200 000 subscribers.

Film and TV have followed and in 2023 he’ll be coming to Musselburgh with stories and jokes in the live show, Stories of Scotland. Nominated for many comedy awards and named Scottish Comedian of the year in 2014, Bruce brings his chirpy, occasionally near-the-bone but self-deprecating style to spice up stories from Scotland’s past.

“This man exudes infectious warmth and humour” Chortle.co.uk
“Put simply, he is a very, very funny man” The Skinny”
“His timing is split second and his ad-lib ability is amazing” Daily Record
