Comedy: Optional feat. Alan Ritchie, Craig Scott & Kieron Power

About Comedy: Optional feat. Alan Ritchie, Craig Scott & Kieron Power

Three of the most exciting new comics in Glasgow’s circuit join forces. Alan, Craig and Kieron met in the infancy of their comedy journey at the beginning of 2024 and have had an outrageous WhatsApp group chat ever since.

The trio offer a mixture of comedic stylings focusing on clinical, observational story telling and high energy punch lines. With a pinch of madness.

After becoming regulars at some of Glasgow’s open mic nights, they’ve progressed to longer sets on some of the city’s most established gigs and some of the boys have travelled further afield, including performances in Manchester, London and at the infamous Stockton Gong.

Performing at their first GICF, Comedy: Optional are excited to share this bill in a show that promises to be entertaining and well worth the entry fee. Don’t miss it!
