About Laurie Stevens
David's One-Man Band (F*ck You, Steven) is a 60-minute character comedy and music show by Laurie Stevens, performed at the Belly Dancer venue during Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2025. The show inhabits the mid-noughties world of David, an emo teen who plans to headline Sticky Floors — the coolest band night in the Bay Area — when his bandmate fails to show up. With live renditions of classic rock, original songs and emo bangers, the show examines how teenage boys communicate when words are hard. Tickets from £8, age guidance 14 and above.
Why see this show?
A coming-of-age character comedy that earns its laughs through specificity — the mid-noughties emo world is rendered with live music and knowing detail. If you remember band nights, difficult feelings and dodgy diagrams, this 60-minute solo show at the Belly Dancer will resonate.
