About Comedy Sneak Peeks

THEY'RE BACK!!

We are absolutely delighted to welcome comedy stars Craig Hill, Connor Burns and Kai Humphries plus perhaps other guests this year, and we can guarantee you an uproarious and fun night of laugh-out-loud standup.*

Please note these shows are still a work in progress, there will be some strong language and although they might not be slick, they sure will be funny!

Book now! Age limit is 16+ and tickets are strictly limited (these are in-studio performances)

CRAIG HILL – Renowned for his high-octane, irreverent live comedy, Craig’s razor-sharp wit and outrageous audience rapport have seen Scotland's favourite kilted comedian also become a superstar in Australia. He tours non stop across Europe, Australia (including the Sydney Opera House) and recently blew the roof off New York in his own solo season off-Broadway !

KAI HUMPHRIES – Blyths’ very own comedy star who has toured across 55 countries opening for his best friend Daniel Sloss, is the co-host of hit podcast "Sloss and Humphries on the Road" , and has toured 8 of his own solo shows around Australia as well as a run off-Broadway.

CONNOR BURNS - Brilliant stand-up from one of the fastest rising new stars of Scottish comedy, who has performed at the Just For Laughs Comedy Festival, opened for Sloss in New York and has just finished his first-ever solo UK tour, adding loads of extra shows.

*Artists subject to availability / final lineups will not be confirmed in advance.
