Edinburgh Fringe Comedy Previews: Jodie Mitchell & Louise Atkinson

Thu 6th July 2023 - Thu 6th July 2023

Two double-bills from women and non-binary comedians presenting brand new work

Two nights of brand new comedy by women and non-binary comics present brand new work before they go to the world renowned Fringe Festival north of the border.

"Becoming John Travulva" by Jodie Mitchell
7:30pm

John Travulva teams up with his tick-box protégé: queer, non-binary class-straddler Jodie Mitchell (Comedy Central Live). But does he need to? He's not sure, he gets plenty of praise as himself: 'John Travulva’s set is so funny it makes all the comedy in my life up to this point redundant'

"Mates" by Louise Atkinson
9:00pm

You can never complete a night out with your friends unless someone has cried over their ex, you've all made a new best friend in the toilets that you'll never see again, and you've done three laps of the bar looking for Lisa. Seriously though, where is she?

Our friends are our chosen family. From the happiest times to breaking up with friends, grab a pint (of wine) and Louise will recount some of her funniest memories. Hopefully we find Lisa.
