ALOK

A "jaw-dropping celestial event"

Flippant and fabulous. Wicked sharp and delightfully silly. Gender non-conforming and genre non-conforming. Internationally acclaimed comedian ALOK makes a triumphant return to the Fringe with their new stand-up show after a sold-out run at the Traverse Theater in 2022 which was described as 'provocative and powerful' (Chortle.co.uk) and a 'jaw-dropping celestial event' (ToDoList.org.uk).

Fresh from their appearance on Hannah Gadsby’s Gender Agenda comedy special on Netflix and headlining the Netflix is a Joke Festival, ALOK delivers a crash course on love, gender, and the awkward choreography of being human.

Alexis Gay: Unprofessional

Comedy

Alexis Gay: Unprofessional

'Hey... do you have a minute?' Bad from your boyfriend, worse from your boss. From New York-based stand-up, viral video comedian and former tech employee Alexis Gay, Unprofessional is a comedy debut about working (or, uh, not working) in tech, and one very specific 4pm meeting at a company called... Redacted (she may or may not have signed an NDA, sorry!). Directed by Fringe veteran Matt Gehring, this show explores making work your entire personality, going nowhere on the hedonic treadmill and worrying so much about your LinkedIn profile that it lands you at the hair doctor.

Ruby Carr: eBae

Deep dive into the weird and wonderful world of eBay. I’m obsessed with the thrill of an auction, it’s like shopping – but with a winner. I will show you the crème de la crème of the hidden worlds and the weird subcultures of eBay. I have bought it all. Is this because I’m a sucker for a good deal? A good story? Or is it my obsessive-compulsive disorder combined with my ADHD? You decide! I’ll take you down the rabbit hole, seeking validation for each progressively more unhinged purchase.
