Benefit Gala for Lui

Various • Professional company

In 2023, Dave MacGregor and his partner Claire had a son, Lui. The results of Lui's MRI found that he has scarring on his brain. There's lifelong implications for Lui. As treasured members of the Scottish comedy community – we want to do everything we can to help provide for Lui's needs, now and in the future. Last year our sold-out gigs raised over £10,000. This year we're doing it all over again.
