Edinburgh Fringe
Colin Hoult: Colin
![Recommended by Comedy.co.uk](https://cdn.comedy.co.uk/images/graphics/fringe/recommended.png)
Anna Mann superfans can rest easy: Colin Hoult is performing as himself for the first time, telling quality stories from quite an odd upbringing in Nottingham. There's still some top-tier audience interaction that's reminiscent of his former alter-ego, though.
The acclaimed comedian and 2022 Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee returns with a stand-up show about family, fatherhood, and a formative childhood experience with a Ouija board and a gorilla. As seen in Afterlife (Netflix), Avoidance (BBC), Ghosts (BBC), This Time With Alan Partridge (BBC), and judging the 2023 BBC New Comedy Awards. 'Terrific... you will laugh yourself silly throughout' ***** (Telegraph). 'Genius... one of the funniest comedy shows I've seen' ***** (Times). 'Superb' ***** (TheArtsDesk.com). 'Hilarious' **** (Scotsman). **** (Independent). **** (Guardian). **** (Evening Standard).
