About Avalon

Pierre Novellie: Do the One About... is a stand-up show presented by Avalon at Studio One on the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. It collects the very best moments from Novellie's decade of observational, nerd-inflected stand-up Fringe shows and brings them together as a live performance. The show is described as being like the BBC Radio 4 series but live, running for 60 minutes. Age guidance is 14+.

Why see this show?

If you've ever wanted to experience a decade's worth of sharp observational comedy distilled into a single hour, this is a rare chance to see a storyteller who turns niche enthusiasms into broadly relatable material — live rather than through a speaker.
