Scotland's favourite kilted treasure puts the wind in your willows! After 10 soldout Fringe seasons, Craig breezes back for an exhilarating evening of pure-and-simple comedy. Sometimes wickedly provocative and always outrageously cheeky, treat yourself to an uplifting hour of fun. 'Riotously funny ... He's that rare thing, a naturally funny comedian' (Independent), 'Wonderful ... Master of audience-interaction. He blew the roof off!' (Chortle.co.uk), 'Hill actually has to wait until the audience stop laughing before he can start again. It's absolutely hilarious' (Evening News), 'Irresistible! ... An hour with Hill makes for a cracking show' (List )

Craig Hill interview

From Kuala Lumpur to Jakarta, and from Sydney to The Scheme.

Brian McIver, Daily Record, 6th August 2011

More details

MZA and Chill Productions are delighted to present the latest new show from Craig Hill - Scotland's whirlwind of comedy - an evening of comedy that is guaranteed to blow his audience away.

In over a decade of entertaining audiences around the world, Craig has become renowned as a comic force of nature, blowing away the cobwebs of unadventurous, traditional comedy and revitalizing them with his own uniquely uplifting comedic style.

With his cheeky, irreverent and, of course, wonderfully camp blend of incisive stand-up, razor-sharp improvisation and fabulous musical characterisations, he has become one of Scotland's best-loved exports. His boundless energy, pitch-perfect stagecraft and superb audience rapport are perfectly matched to make each and every one of his live shows a joyously entertaining experience.

Craig has firmly established himself as one of the UK's best-loved entertainers with five BBC TV series to his name and many more guest appearances besides. He has sold out all his previous Edinburgh Festival Fringe seasons, the shows subsequently going on to tour successfully throughout the UK and internationally.

In 2008 he starred in the UK tour of the hit show (and Eurovision Song Contest satire) Eurobeat, almost Eurovision. He also performed a 35 minute extended solo set at The London Palladium (where he received a massive ovation) and was invited by Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber to present a specially created alternative variety show, Craig Hill's Forbidden Vaudeville. He has just returned from an extensive comedy tour of South East Asia and another highly successful season in Australia where he was hailed as one of the stars of the Sydney International Comedy Festival. He was also recently seen on TV's The Best Of Just For Laughs, a storming performance recorded in Montreal, truly cementing his reputation as one of the 'must see' performers whenever he visits anywhere in the world.
