Join Mark & Micky as they prep for the Edinburgh Fringe!

Maybe you've come across one of Mark's charming skits skewering gay stereotypes online? Perhaps you've bumped into him swilling back the lagers and chanting at the footie? Or seen him selling his underwear on Grindr and thought: 'hot AND funny' (and a bargain)!
No? Whichever way, join IG/TikTok star Mark (BBC New Comedy Awards shortlist, 20M views) for his hotly anticipated debut hour of standup. 'Catch him before he shoots off into the comedy stratosphere' BroadwayBaby

This year Micky finds her life at the point of no return. Its too late to change things, no matter how much she wants to, plus shes too old for the coping mechanisms she had in her 20s (buying a plane ticket and flying away from her problems). Micky Overman is an award-nominated comedian whose previous Edinburgh shows received critical acclaim. Her last hour, The Precipice, was one of the best reviewed shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. She has written for and acted in sketches for ITV2, Channel 4, and BBC3, and her social media content has received over 40 millions views online. Originally from the Netherlands, Mickys outsider perspective, quick wit, silly delivery and spot-on observations make her one Britains most exciting female voices. Top-notch lines that wouldnt be out of place in an A-listers Netflix special Chortle

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Show me the charities

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD
The Make A Difference Trust fights HIV & AIDS one stage at a time. Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
