Winner of the Canadian Comedy Award for best stand-up, the deeply deadpan and utterly unique King of Obscure Winston Spear makes his Fringe debut with a comedy and dance routine that will knock, knock your socks off. Best known for the unique dance routines he incorporates into his act, 'he's the wittiest guy you'll ever meet that dances on stage as if nobody's watching! Hilarious!' (Blogto.com). A regular cast member/writer on the Comedy Network's hit show Comedy Inc, Winston's performed at some of the biggest comedy festivals in North America. Don't miss his Scottish debut!
