Edinburgh Fringe
Josh Thomas: Let's Tidy Up
This is a show where Josh tidies up. Tidying up is not normally the stuff of gripping drama, it wouldn't be a propulsive narrative for most people but for Josh it's Everest, a fundamentally impossible task, like trying to defy the moon and control the tides. Josh's brain has managed to make him the creator and star of hit TV shows (Please Like Me, Everything's Gonna Be Okay), in this show he tries to work out how to do the small stuff. Written with award-winning playwright, Lally Katz.

It seems faintly astonishing that Australian stand-up Josh Thomas is only making his full Fringe debut this year, given he was a finalist in So You Think You're Funny? almost two decades ago.

The Australian comic started stand-up at 17, but a fear of 'schlepping around' for 60 years led him to retire. Now, eight years later, he has rediscovered his mojo - and is back with a set musing on his recent autism diagnosis.
