2013 Edinburgh Fringe

More details

One of Britain's finest comedians and broadcasters, Marcus Brigstocke, is taking his hotly anticipated new show Je m'accuse - I am Marcus to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this year. Marcus will be performing nightly at the Assembly Hall: Rainy Hall at 9:10pm.

Marcus explains - "Je m'accuse - I am Marcus. Podium dancer, oil rig worker, food addict, musical theatre enthusiast, posh, eco-hypocrite, ex-Goth, muppet fan, award winning comedian and chief beverages operator at the Little Chef - screw politics! Let's talk about me."

Marcus's talent was noted early on in his career in 1996 when he won the BBC New Comedian Award at the Edinburgh Festival. He is now regarded as a major comedy, writing and acting talent, performing stand-up nationally to sell out audiences around the UK and globally at international comedy festivals.

BBC Radio 4 has become somewhat of a second home to him with regular appearances on The Now Show and Just A Minute, and he has notched up an impressive list of TV credits including team captain on Argumental (Dave) and the host of BBC Four's The Late Edition and I've Never Seen Star Wars. He has also recently appeared in the West End and toured with the award-winning hit musical Spamalot where he played the role of King Arthur to much critical acclaim.
