Entertainment combined harvester Charlie Baker (Harry Hill's Teatime Sky 1, O2 Comedy Gala Channel 4, EastEnders) sings his nostalgic love letter to pop music of the 80s, 90s and 00s. Part comedy, part cabaret, his jokes, dancing and musical re-imagining of throwaway hits will send you into the Edinburgh night with a happier soul. 'A superior take on the modern showman' (Guardian). 'Pure, undiluted barmy musical fun not to be missed - not even by you' ***** (Three Weeks).

Why is nostalgia so comfortable but melancholy? Why do we retreat to the old songs? If you leave home at 18 for the bright lights, big city, can you ever be local anywhere again? What's it like to be in EastEnders? Enjoy 15 minutes of stand up, music and chat with Charlie, the Hit Polisher.
Martin Walker, Broadway Baby, 19th July 2017The Edinburgh interviews 2017: Charlie Baker
Stand up comic Charlie Baker's latest show The Hit Polisher is an interesting blend of comedy and cabaret. As an ode to pop music from the 80s, 90s and 00s, there is surely something for everyone within this show. Charlie has made appearances on Harry Hill's Teatime and the 02 Comedy Gala in recent years, proving himself to be a slick and energetic stand up performer, and he will be performing at Assembly George Square Theatre throughout August.
