Bright Side PresentsProfessional company

60 minutesThe Wee Coo
Australian comedy's number one autistic glamourpuss is back in Edinburgh with a banging hour of trademark Jarvis oddball stand-up. She's getting dragged backwards through a hedge and onto stage to perform some brand-new carefully crafted, deceivingly dark and genuinely funny stand-up comedy about the cruelty of reality TV, the cultural distrust being perpetrated by fairy floss flavoured vapes and the collapse of the social contract. There's something, if not for everyone, then for a large spectrum of freaks. One of Rolling Stone's 12 Must-See Comedy Shows at the Edinburgh Fringe 2025.

About the show

Presented by Bright Side Presents, Grace Jarvis returns to Edinburgh with a new hour of oddball stand-up. Carefully crafted but deceivingly dark, the show takes on the cruelty of reality TV, cultural distrust perpetrated by fairy floss flavoured vapes and the collapse of the social contract. Jarvis describes herself as Australian comedy's number one autistic glamourpuss, and her material offers something for a large spectrum of freaks. Performed at The Wee Coo, the show runs for 60 minutes and is suitable for those aged 16 and over.

Why see this show?

Jarvis brings genuine wit and a sharp cultural eye to an hour of stand-up that works harder than it lets on. The topics — reality TV cruelty, social trust, vapes — sound of the moment but the comedy is carefully made.
