From BBC Radio Scotland's Breaking the News, 'Scotland's brightest comedy talent' **** (Sun), this is a must-see for 2016. Stuart has been dealt a bad hand, and not just in life. From tragic accidents and medical complications to losing both parents, this debut is a hilarious take on dealing with life's misfortunes and coming out the other end unscathed. 'Comparisons will inevitably be drawn between Mitchell and Kevin Bridges' (ThreeWeeks). 'Please go see Stuart Mitchell!' (Will Ferrell). 'Amazing performance. It's a pleasure to catch him before he makes it big' **** (Skinny)..

Stuart Mitchell's making an excellent fist of comedy

Losing the tips of two fingers at the age of five, finding your mum dead from suicide two years later, and then watching your dad die of stomach cancer - it doesn't sound like the obvious stuff of comedy. But Stuart Mitchell is proving a real hit at this year's Edinburgh Fringe with a show that actively embraces all of the above (and a whole lot more) in a festival debut that defies the audience not to share his positive approach to life.

Stuart Mitchell has been Dealt a Bad Hand, and is coming to Edinburgh to share his experiences through an hour of stand up comedy. Scottish comedian Stuart is no stranger to the Edinburgh Festival, and is performing a full hour of solo material this year with his new show.
