The Alternative Comedy Show

Discover your cool friend’s new favourite comedian at this celebration of comic ideas and originality.

With a headline set from Toussaint Douglass, join us for this celebration of comic ideas and originality.

Award-winning comedian and writer Toussaint Douglass is making serious waves across the industry, having made his hotly anticipated Edinburgh Festival Fringe debut with a critically acclaimed hour of stand-up in 2025.

Our MC for the night is Dom McGovern, a BBC New Comedy Award nominee and co-writer of Chicken Shop Date with Amelia Dimoldenberg.

Opening is Rosalie Minnitt, a writer and performer who made her Edinburgh Fringe debut with character comedy Clementine, described as “delirious, demented stuff” in Chortle and listed in the Telegraph’s Funniest Shows at the Fringe.

In the middle spot is Roger O’Sullivan, best Newcomer nominee at Edinburgh Fringe 2025 and regional finalist at the BBC New Comedy Awards 2021.
