2015 Edinburgh Fringe

More details

Following a brilliantly well received debut show at 2014's Edinburgh Festival Fringe, Minor Delays return this year with their brand new show.

Minor Delays are Abi Tedder, Harry Michell and Joe Barnes. Their distinct style of stripped-back, front-facing, melancholic comedy is currently part of the Invisible Dot's New Wave. Last summer their debut show at the Gilded Balloon saw them named as one of the Best Reviewed Shows of Edinburgh Fringe 2014 by the British Comedy Guide. This year they are finalists of the London Sketchfest competition.
