PHIL NICHOL Comedy Takeover
Phil Nichol : Aren't We Lucky ( Edfringe Preview / Work In Progress)
Phil Nichol is a truly unique performer. An acclaimed actor, award winning comedian, producer, presenter, writer and musician, there is no end to his talent! WINNER - Scotsman Fringe First Award 2011 WINNER - IF.COM Eddie Award 2006 (previously The Perrier, now known as the Edinburgh Comedy Award) ‘Aren’t We Lucky’ is a dynamic, wonderfully heart-warming story exploring chance, love, magic, and loss. Through the deeply personal yet funny story of his friend Kevin Hearn’s battle with leukemia, and the extraordinary chain of events that followed, Phil reflects on regret, good fortune, and the simple, visceral act of appreciating what we have right here, right now. Life itself is a lottery—and you’re already winning. “.. not just comedy but soul-quenching storytelling at its finest.” EDINBURGH FESTIVAL MAG *****

Phil Nichol: The Naked Racist ( Edfringe Preview / Work In Progress)
20th anniversary of the 2006 Edinburgh Comedy Award winning show. The unhinged re-telling of an Amsterdam trip gone wrong ending with an epiphany of epic proportions. 'You won't see many comedy shows that actually exert g-force. Exhilarating, incredibly funny and clever' (Scotsman). 'This is a show that makes you laugh and think while you are watching and then wakes you up in the night to laugh and think again' (Scotsman). 'Mind-blowing. Infectious joy' ***** (Scotland on Sunday).

OMG this event was amazing. From start to finish we sold out. Sion was so good as host and very organised bringing every one into event we felt we were there. Never laughed so much all comedians were brilliant they did they research and worked the crowd as a cancer charity it lifted our spirits definitely recommend and will do another one soon

What a fun night! All without leaving my sofa. An excellent line-up that had me engaged and laughing like a drain. The most fun I’ve had in my pyjamas in a long time. 5 stars. Would recommend.

Great evening of fun in these strange times. MC Sion in your living room never fails to entertain. Just wish my Welsh WiFi was more reliable

I was surprised at how well the comedy worked online. Viewers who weren't shy were able to interact with comedians. All comedians were of good standard.

Fantastic, their best lineup yet that I've attended, last night with Abandoman and Athena Kugblenu - these acts never fail to impress! Really love this evening, Sion does a great job of making everyone feel at home and like you're actually on a night out, I love it :)
