Vladimir McTavish / The Stand Comedy ClubProfessional company

60 minutesStand 4
Following the sell-out success of his 2023 Edinburgh show, The End Of The Beginning Of The End, McTavish, 'one of the finest acts on the Scottish comedy circuit' (Guardian), presents another hour-long sideways look at the problems facing the world. A mix of acerbic satire, affable observation and hilarious anecdotes. Thought the world couldn’t get worse? Think again. We’re set for oblivion. We may as well laugh in its face. 'Takes amiable, yet strident swipes against the horrors in store' (Scotsman). 'Inspired comedy brilliance' (AustralianStage.com.au).

About the show

Vladimir McTavish returns to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe with a new hour-long show, presented at Stand 4 by The Stand Comedy Club. Building on his previous Edinburgh shows, McTavish delivers a sideways look at the problems facing the world through a mix of acerbic satire, affable observation and hilarious anecdotes. The show runs for 60 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 16 and over. Strong language is used throughout.

Why see this show?

McTavish is a reliably sharp satirist with a gift for finding dark comedy in the state of the world. His mix of acerbic observation and affable storytelling makes difficult subjects feel approachable — and genuinely funny rather than simply bleak.
