About Christian Brighty
Christian Brighty: Outlord (WIP) is a character comedy and clown show from the creator of BBC Radio 4's The Many Wrongs of Lord Christian Brighty — nominated for Best Radio Comedy at the Chortle Awards 2025. In this new work, Lord Brighty returns to Edinburgh to take on the biggest cause of inequality: himself. Can he maintain the status quo? If wealth won't trickle down, can love? And who is the Masked Magpie? Described as Batman meets Bridgerton, the show runs for 60 minutes, involves audience participation and is suitable for audiences aged 18 and over. Directed by Amy Greaves.
Why see this show?
A comedian who's been praised for outrageously silly material delivered with eye-watering wit, now turning the lens on class and inequality through an aristocratic alter ego. A work-in-progress Edinburgh show from a sharp comic voice.
