The Beat Goes On

Edinburgh 2026

David Harmer and Ray Globe, the irrepressible Glummer Twins, are back with another irreverent trawl through the fads, fashions and music of the eight decades that made them what they are today. Old. Stand-up spoken word comedy and music from the Beat Generation. Expect sharp-tongued nostalgia, musical mayhem and brutally honest takes on the indignities of ageing. 'You absolutely won't regret spending an hour in their company' (FringeGuru.com). 'A perfect double act' (Chris Neville Smith). 'A completely different take on stand-up. Seriously clever and very funny' (BuxtonFringe.org.uk).

This is an archived listing from the 2026 Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The Beat Goes On is by The Glummer Twins, listed under Comedy in the Fringe programme. It plays at Paradise in Augustines, 41 George IV Bridge, EH1 1EL, 17 August to 22 August.

The show runs 50 minutes and is suitable for ages 8+. Tickets are £10.
