Early Edinburgh previews from Edinburgh Comedy Award best newcomer Jonny Sweet, and new newcomer John-Luke Roberts.

JONNY SWEET; LET’S ALL JUST HAVE SOME FUN (AND LEARN SOMETHING, FOR ONCE)

Edinburgh Comedy Newcomer Award Winner 2009, Jonny Sweet returns with a whole lecture series and a mid-level multimedia budget. Jonny recently pedaled himself on BBC3’s The King Is Dead, playing David Cameron for Channel 4 and Jared in Radio 4’s Party.

“It’s silly, wonderfully acted and perfectly scripted. Basically, what I’m saying is go and see it. Infectiously funny.”

JOHN-LUKE ROBERTS DISTRACTS YOU FROM A MURDER

John-Luke Roberts performs whimsical, esoteric comedy to distract you from the brutal, sickening murder he will be committing during the show. John-Luke is ½ of peculiar double-act The Behemoth, Josie Long’s tour support and writer for Radio 4’s News Quiz. This will be the first time he has murdered professionally.
