About Henning Nilsen
Henning Nilsen is a Norwegian comedian making his Edinburgh Fringe debut with a show called 1 And Done — a title that signals his stated intention to do this once and no more. The show combines his best jokes with the story of how he found himself without a show partner only three weeks before the Fringe. Nilsen performs regularly at some of the UK's largest comedy clubs and has toured internationally across the US, Europe, and Asia. Entry is guaranteed at £5.
Why see this show?
A debut that is explicitly billed as a one-time only appearance — Henning Nilsen says he is done after this, which gives the whole show a pleasing now-or-never energy. Strong stand-up credentials, low entry price, and a story with a built-in dramatic shape.
