Google Chambers Touring LtdAbout the show
Eric Rushton: Innkeeper is a stand-up and storytelling show performed at The Tron during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, presented by Chambers Touring Ltd. Rushton's background is unusual: cast in his primary school Nativity in 2004, he immediately retired from child acting and has since returned to performing with the help of the correct antidepressants. The show has won the Channel 4 Sean Lock Comedy Award and the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year, and draws praise for its disarming silliness and unexpected turns of phrase.
Why see this show?
Rushton has a reputation for surprising his audiences — his comedy is built on craft and an oddball charm that rewards close attention. The Channel 4 Sean Lock Comedy Award and Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year wins speak to a performer with real originality.
