2017 Edinburgh Fringe

Meet the charming Troy Hawke... a lounge lizard with a love of Scrabble. This character-based stand-up set is packed with laughs. You'll never be able to walk past a Poundland again without thinking about a certain pop star.

Poundland's plastic communism, the nefarious get rich quick allure of the bingo, the empty capitalistic promise of Waitrose and more come under the inscrutable eye of the Hawke! As well as performing at all leading UK comedy venues, the world according to Troy has been spreading frenziedly on the internet and he even has his own series on the Beano channel - whacko! 'Undeniably funny' **** (Chortle.co.uk). 'Mad comic genius' (Scotsman). 'Perfectly written jokes... funny and thoughtful' (BroadwayBaby.co.uk). 'One of the year's best comedy acts... will outgrow his venue in no time' (EdfestMag.com).
