The Edinburgh interviews 2017: Rob Auton

Rob Auton has a unique approach to the writing of a stand up show, working around an abstract theme, spring-boarding off something as simple as a word. Auton's style of comedy is a playful and sentimental take on performance poetry, unlike anything else you will see at the Fringe this year. He will be performing The Hair Show at Just the Tonic at The Caves throughout August.

Fringe - Rob Auton: The Hair Show

Rob Auton is a stand-up comedian and poet. A past winner of the Dave Funniest Joke of The Fringe award, he returns to Edinburgh with a show that sees him cast an introspective eye over the world of hair, underpinned by leaving his head hair and beard to their own devices until he has performed The Hair Show for the final time.
