The Best Of Edinburgh Showcase Show returns for its 17th year in the Pleasance Courtyard with the ever-popular lunchtime comedy compilation gig.
A new line-up every day features an eclectic mix of the best of the UK’s club comics, the hottest new up-and-coming talent, and even some of the big name headliners as they visit Fringe.
Previous guests include John Bishop, David O’Doherty, Adam Hills, Hal Cruttenden, Frisky and Mannish, Jess Robinson, Micky Flanagan, The Boy With Tape On His Face, Jo Caulfield and Russell Howard.
Presented in the comfortable, cosy and air-conditioned Cabaret Bar, The Showcase Show is a great place for scouting new talent and for deciding which solo shows to buy tickets for.
“A perfect bite-sized flavor of the festival” **** (ThreeWeeks)
“This delightful afternoon slot at the Pleasance is a crowd-pleaser” (Broadway Baby)
“A brilliant way to discover new talent” **** (ThreeWeeks)
