Official Selection: Variety's 10 Comics to Watch (2022). Fresh off his HBO Max stand-up special Trash White produced by Conan O'Brien, Moses Storm makes his Edinburgh debut with a brand-new show about being raised in an unsuccessful doomsday cult. A former Just For Laughs New Face who's been touring the US for the past decade, this show is a unique interactive experience that invites audience members to participate in the formation of a one-night-only cult. Film and TV credits include: Arrested Development (Netflix), Everything's Trash (Hulu), Half Baked 2 (Universal) and multiple late-night sets.
