ARCHIVE: Double Deckers: Mitch Benn & Ellie Taylor

Please note that Stuart Goldsmith, who was originally booked for this event, has been replaced by Mitch Benn.

Double Deckers is the latest collection of brand new double bill solo stand-up shows being previewed for this summer’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival – the biggest comedy carnival in the world. Two shows per night from the comedy circuit elite for only a tenner.

mitch benn: don’t fear the reaper

It’s been a morbid year for “the country’s leading musical satirist” (The Times); he’s turned 46 – over the hill by anyone’s standards – his personal life is in turmoil, and his childhood heroes are dropping like flies. At times like these, a man feels the Reaper creeping up on him…

But is death anything to fear? And is it really the end? Mitch confronts his – and YOUR – mortality with hilarious (and tuneful) consequences. Join him! It’s an hour of your life you’re not getting back!

“Well crafted, well sung, his songs are just plain funny” The Guardian
“Song after song of exquisitely crafted satire” The Scotsman

ELLIE TAYLOR: WORK-IN-PROGRESS

Join Ellie Taylor, star of Mock the Week, Snog Marry Avoid and 8 Out of 10 Cats, as she prepares a brand new show for 2016. With jokes so new they don’t actually exist at the time of writing this blurb, it’s bound to be an electrifyingly sensationally hilarious/passable way to spend 60 minutes.

“Smart, self-mocking and telegenic, it’s hard to see what else is going to stand in Taylor’s way” The Scotsman
