About the show
Tomas Bepalo: What Gets Better? is a 60-minute dark comedy at Just the Club Room at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Through stand-up, storytelling and clowning, Tomas Bepalo explores life as a neurodivergent, nonbinary person navigating sex, dating, family and loneliness. The show draws on late-diagnosed neurodivergence and starting testosterone, sharing exaggerated stories with humour. It tackles dysphoria, mental health and the reality that life doesn't magically improve — but we get better at handling it. It contains strong language and is suitable for ages 18 and over.
Why see this show?
Personal, messy and genuinely funny — this show mixes stand-up, storytelling and clowning to explore neurodivergence and identity with honesty and warmth. A show that invites conversations rather than just laughs.
