Book NowAbout the show
Matt Hobs is one of the country's premier badger comedians, and this stand-up show follows his previous Edinburgh Fringe appearance to explore the worlds of badgers, hedgehogs and the people who care about them. Since his last show Matt has trained to be a badger rescuer, been asked to help in the fight for badger rights, and has had a badger move into his garden. The show also addresses the eternal question: what are better, badgers or hedgehogs? Strong language is present throughout.
Why see this show?
A stand-up comedian who has fully committed to the badger bit — and has the badger-rescuer training to prove it. Wonderfully specific and surprisingly heartfelt, and at £2.50 it is one of the most affordable shows at the Fringe.
