Google Kevin James DoyleAbout Kevin James Doyle
Kevin James Doyle returns to Edinburgh with Wild Card, a storytelling comedy show in which the audience decides what happens next. Using a deck of note cards with categories including Embarrassing Stories, Weird Encounters and Big Mistakes, Doyle lets the crowd shape the night so that every performance is unique. Part stand-up, part confessional, part social experiment — the show is described as hilarious, unpredictable and deeply personal. Running 60 minutes at Just Up the Stairs, suitable for ages 12 and above.
Why see this show?
A storytelling show that genuinely changes each night based on audience choice — there is no set order, so no two visits are the same. Doyle's confessional, personal material makes the unpredictability feel meaningful rather than gimmicky.
