He knows what it takes to make an award-worthy comedy show, because Sudden Death has it all. It is highly entertaining and hilariously funny. This feels like a level-up. Rosco McClelland has arrived.
Step into the wild world of McClelland's Sudden Death, where old friendships collide with the unexpected in a comedic whirlwind set in the heart of Scotland. Join Rosco as he navigates highs and lows of life, death and a penchant for edibles, all while grappling with the ultimate game-changer: a potentially fatal heart condition. With uproarious anecdotes and sharp wit, McClelland takes audiences on a rollercoaster ride through the highs and lows of day-to-day life, peppered with Scottish charm and unexpected twists. 'McClelland's gravelly and animated onstage presence emitted continuous laughter from the audience' ***** (Skinny).
