Tom Deacon - Deaconator
BBC Radio 1 DJ and award-winning stand-up comedian Tom Deacon (Rob Brydon Show, Dave’s One Night Stand) returns to Edinburgh.
In Deaconator, Tom talks gap yahs and stag dos, helping his mate rob a bank and potentially causing Greece’s economic crash (oops).
Last year Fest Magazine said Tom had ‘a handful of cracking one-liners’, well this year, he’s back with two handfuls (admittedly, he has really tiny girl-hands).
‘With looks, confidence, charm and great material, expect other comics to lynch him’ (The Sunday Times)
‘Great original material with ever-so-astute timing. A brilliantly savvy comic’(Three Weeks
Brendon Burns
For two decades now the adopted Australian has been Britain’s most outspoken and number one cult comic. Since receiving the long-awaited Oscar of live stand-up comedy: the if.comedy award for best live comedy show in 2007, Burns has been one of the most prolific and busiest men in showbusiness both here and across the pond.
In late 2008 Burns recorded not one but two live DVDs for Universal, and aired a special on Comedy Central over the Spring of 2009. Time Out London gave the special five stars and wrote: “He’s an Enigma wrapped in a riddle, multiplied by a puzzle is Brendon Burns. That and a squawking, foul mouthed pricker of pomposity, whom it’s nonetheless hard to love… the most jaw-droppingly awkward, painful, yet ultimately rewarding piece of stand up we’ve ever seen. He might be irritating but he’s very good.”
