About Zach Riley
Zach Riley brings Good Pill Hunting to Edinburgh after a run at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. This solo stand-up hour is performed at The Wee Room and covers his dead father, the discount crematorium industry, how he became an inadvertent accessory to a crime, soul-crushing jobs, a hated colleague, and his ongoing search for an antidepressant that works. The show contains strong language and is suitable for ages 18 and above.
Why see this show?
A solo hour that packs in grief, dark comedy and the indignities of modern working life at a very modest ticket price. Honest, messy and entirely unafraid of uncomfortable territory — exactly what stand-up at the Fringe is for.
