About The Stand Comedy Club
Scottish Comedy Legends: Jim Smith is an in-conversation event presented by The Stand Comedy Club at Stand 3 during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Jim Smith is described as a Perthshire farmer returning to the big smoke with some homegrown fresh pickings ready for sampling — a show suitable for both country bumpkins and city slickers. The event runs for 60 minutes, contains strong language, and is suitable for ages 16 and over.
Why see this show?
A relaxed in-conversation format with a comedian whose material is rooted in rural Perthshire life — the kind of perspective that refreshes a Fringe programme heavy on city voices. Country meets city at one of Edinburgh's most trusted comedy venues.
