Rhys Nicholson to tour in September and October
- Stand-up show Rhys Nicholson: Huge Big Party Congratulations! will tour in September and October, following an Edinburgh Festival run
- "Rhys is set to publicly untangle themselves for money and ask the big questions now that their 'happily ever after' has begun"
Following a run at the Edinburgh Festival, Australian comedian Rhys Nicholson is to tour stand-up show Huge Big Party Congratulations! across September and October.
The show's blurb explains: "Congratulations are in order, Rhys Nicholson is finally married. After years of performing sell-out stand-up shows taking us on the journey of getting engaged, fighting for marriage equality in Australia, planning and then cancelling their wedding because of a fun global health crisis, it could be argued that being indefinitely betrothed became Rhys' personality. In their brand-new show Huge Big Party Congratulations!, Rhys is set to publicly untangle themselves for money and ask the big questions now that their 'happily ever after' has begun. Like, what in the absolute f**k are they meant to talk about now, and why don't they feel any different being wed? Rhys would also like to make it clear that the show has an astounding amount of jokes, especially of the dick variety - all for the sake of a good laugh and perhaps a few of their mortgage payments along the way."
Huge Big Party Congratulations! will run at Underbelly Bristo Square at 8.25pm throughout the Edinburgh Festival, before heading on the following 22 tour dates. Tickets are on sale from 1st May from Ticketmaster
