Craig Hill
Renowned for his high-octane, irreverent live comedy, Craig’s razor-sharp wit and outrageous audience rapport have seen Scotland's favourite kilted comedian also become a superstar in Australia. He tours non stop across Europe, Australia (including the Sydney Opera House) and recently blew the roof off New York in his own solo season off-Broadway ! 

“Flat-out hilarious... I’ve not heard a room laugh so long and hard... There isn’t anyone better at working a crowd... the audience was in absolute paroxysms of laughter... Genuinely funny” ★★★★★ (The Mirror) 

Connor Burns
Brilliant stand-up from one of the fastest rising new stars of Scottish comedy, who has performed at the Just For Laughs Comedy Festival, opened for Sloss in New York and has just finished his first-ever solo UK tour, adding loads of extra shows.

‘‘There is a great comedy talent at work here. The material is packed in like chips in a poke and Burns himself is genuinely likeable… There is nothing he sets his comedic sights on that he misses… he is fearless and it is wonderful… hilarious!" ★★★★★ The Scotsman
