Following multiple sold-out runs, Glaswegian comic Stuart Nixon returns with a new hour of stand-up comedy and characters, described by critics as "free". A regular contributor to The Moth, Stuart has performed his unique brand of comedy storytelling across the world and has acted alongside Guz Khan, Michael McIntyre and Jazz Emu. 'Stuart Nixon is beyond a comedy act. He's a vibe.' (Omid Djalili). 'One to watch' (Dan Benedictus, Desert Island Dicks). 'Genius. The most bizarre show I've seen at the Fringe. Awesomely bonkers yet beautifully poignant. I loved it.' (Paul Currie).
