Pre-Edinburgh Fringe Comedy Warm-Ups: Tom Rosenthal & Marise Gaughan
From:10-07-2025
To:10-07-2025
+ More Info +

Join us as some of Britain’s finest comedians present a night of preview shows before they head to the Edinburgh Fringe. Some bits will debut comedy genius, the kind of moment that will let you say to your grandchildren ‘I was there! I was there when it was first performed! It was brilliant and beautiful and changed me as a person!’

And some bits will be… less good. It’s a preview. We will pretend to the grandchildren that these bits didn’t happen.

The comics sharing their work with you include BAFTA winners, Edinburgh Comedy Award winners, and a star of the Royal Variety performance, and each one brings something special.


TOM ROSENTHAL has won hearts as an actor in Friday Night Dinner and Plebs, but his stand-up shows, including Manhood, have earned him critical acclaim for his brilliant wit and humour, making him a must-see on the comedy circuit.

MARISE GAUGHAN’s fearless comedy has earned her a reputation on both the LA and Irish comedy scenes. From supporting Jim Norton at Vicar Street to becoming a favourite in major comedy clubs, Gaughan’s biting wit and audacious humour make her a standout performer.
