About Will Davies

Will Davies: Much Peril, Many Intrigue is a stand-up show by Will Davies, running for 60 minutes at Just the Wee One on the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Davies dissects the terrible risks of modern life — disaster lurking around every corner, insidious plots, and the occasional big hole with leaves over the top that you fall into. Davies was nominated for the Neurodiverse Review Excellence Awards. Age guidance is 16+, with a warning for strong language.

Why see this show?

A deadpan, anxiety-driven hour that finds genuine comedy in the paranoia of modern living — Davies has a knack for making catastrophising feel like a rational response. Dry, sharp, and quietly odd.
