The 'mouthy, cynical and sexually frank’ (The Guardian) Tiff Stevenson will headline a quality line up of comedians at this week’s Gilded Balloon Comedy at Drygate - on Friday 24 October 2014 at Drygate Brewing Co, Glasgow.
Tiff will be joined on the bill by the up and coming Glaswegian comedian Christopher MacArthur Boyd together with the quirky Nathaniel Metcalfe. The two shows - 19:30 and 22:00 - will be compered by the double Scottish Comedian of The Year finalist Ray Bradshaw, who has gained a reputation as one of the funniest and most exciting new acts on the Scottish comedy scene.
Tiff Stevenson is a stand-up, actor and writer, known for her honest material and instantly likeable disposition. Her Edinburgh Fringe shows have consistently had packed audiences and rave reviews. Tiff has appeared on Mock The Week (BBC Two), Never Mind The Buzzcocks (BBC Two), The Office (BBC Two) and Celebrity Deal Or No Deal (Channel 4).
‘Gobby and warm... she shoots sharp from the hip with natter that paints jaggedly funny pictures.’ The List
It can be said that Christopher MacArthur Boyd is up-and-coming, in as much as it would be impossible for him to go downhill. He still lives at home with his mum and dad and is unemployed. However he was a finalist in both the notorious So You Think You’re Funny? competition and the Scottish Comedian of The Year Awards in 2014.
Nathaniel Metcalfe has been doing stand up since May 2007. In 2010 he got through to the semi-final of the Laughing Horse New Act of the Year and the final of the Hackney Empire New Act of the Year. In August 2013 Nathaniel took his first solo show to the Edinburgh Fringe with some impressive reviews and ticket sales.
