EXTRA 6PM SHOWS JUST ADDED DUE TO DEMAND!!
Connor Burns – GALLUS *
The all-new hour from the Edinburgh born-and-bred comedian who has risen through the ranks at an almost meteoric rate since his very first open spot in October 2017 to establish himself as the country’s latest international break-through artist. Hailed as one of the most exciting emerging new stars in the live stand-up scene, Connor’s prolific joke writing, his
intelligent, razor-sharp wit and relatable friendly persona is punctuated by a healthy Scottish-level cynicism that has also seen him become a social media sensation.
GALLUS is Connor’s 4th solo show, and lands hot on the heels of his previous smash-hit '1994’ which sold 10,000+ tickets in Edinburgh alone –a feat all the more remarkable as he has achieved this through word-of mouth with no UK television exposure. Old school, ballsy - gallus, so to speak. The ‘1994’ tour included 50 UK shows, 35 shows in Australia and an
off-Broadway run as part of 2024’s New York Comedy Festival. Winner of 2024’s prestigious international Fringe Encore Series, Connor has also opened for Daniel Sloss in 3 continents,
closed the Sydney Comedy Festival Gala at the Sydney Opera House (and also taped a set for Just For Laughs in the landmark venue) and filmed his first special set for release.
*Gallus: Scots dialect meaning Bold, Daring and Reckless
‘Burns has arrived… An authentic Scottish voice. And a gallus one at that.’ ★★★★ (Entertainment Now)
‘There is a great comedy talent at work here… he is fearless and it is wonderful… hilarious!’ ★★★★★ Scotsman
‘Brilliant… gags coming at you at a terrifying rate, with particularly eye-watering lines scattered liberally throughout. But what elevates Burns’ act is his sheer fearlessness.
Superb!’ ★★★★ (The List)
‘A brilliant comedy mind… land punchline after punchline.. a hugely gifted stand-up!’ ★★★★ Beyond the Joke
