Harry Stachini: Grenade

A masterful storyteller with one of the most amiable and easy-going stage presences on the comedy circuit today, Harry Stachini looks at honesty in his latest hour.

Harry Stachini: Grenade

About Harry Stachini: Grenade

We all carry our own grenades with us; our own problems to deal with in our own lives. Do we pull the pin, or do we not? With a focus on his own family’s dynamics, Harry looks at how pulling his own pin destroyed an eight-year relationship, a mortgage and a blue whippet.

A former teaching assistant to children from disadvantaged and challenging backgrounds, Harry delves into his former years educating future serial killers in a surprisingly relatable, honest, and hilarious show.

Now a regular at the circuit’s top clubs and venues, Harry performed his debut Fringe show to sell-out audiences in 2019. In fact, he often finds himself playing to sell-out audiences in his home town of Manchester. His online videos have amassed millions of views across his social media and his first podcast series, The Staff Room Podcast (where teachers share their anonymous stories from the classroom) was nominated for Best Comedy at The British Podcast Awards. Watch out for his latest creation, All Made Up, which will be recording live at Hootenannies: The Apex (Hoot 3) - 1:30pm 2nd - 12th August.

From finding himself climbing a 'group trek' of Kilimanjaro solo to performing overseas in the likes of Dubai and Eindhoven, Harry has many an international tale to tell. He has already worked alongside some of the best names in the industry including Russell Kane, Milton Jones, Jason Byrne and Jessica Fostekew to name a few, and he will no doubt become a name to look out for after this summer.

Venue: Underbelly Dexter - Bristo Square, Teviot Place, Edinburgh, EH8 9AG
