About Big Angie: FireStarter
Big Angie is back with a bang at Glasgow International Comedy Festival with a brand-new show!
Fresh from a run of sell-out, smash hit shows across Glasgow and Edinburgh, she is being heralded as one of Glasgow’s newest and best loved comedians. Kevin Brannigan, the man behind the character, is also fast becoming a sought-after comedy writer, earning critical acclaim and rave reviews for his Edinburgh Fringe show.
Join Glesga’s Big Darlin’ at Glasgow Science Centre’s IMAX Theatre, for the world premiere of her new show 'FireStarter', as one white lie sparks a wildfire, and her fabrications fuel an inferno in Big Angie’s hottest escapade yet!
“Kevin Brannigan has created a character who will be up there with Rab C Nesbitt.”
