Liz Bains returns to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe with her second solo comedy show, following a debut that caught the attention of the Funny Women Awards as a One to Watch. In this show, she takes the unlikely catalyst of freshly dug potatoes gifted to a neighbour — and the existential crisis she received in return — as the jumping-off point for a frank and funny reclamation of the word spinster. A free, 60-minute stand-up set performed at the Southsider, suitable for adults aged 18 and over.
Why see this show?
A comedian with a sharp eye for life's absurd moments, Bains builds her second Fringe solo show around a single neighbourly exchange that spiralled into something much bigger. If you enjoy stand-up that finds comedy in the unexpected, this free show is well worth your time.
