Adam Riches: Jimmy, Summerhall ★★★

Sheeps, Pleasance Courtyard ★★★

The Sound Inside, Traverse Theatre ★★★★★

Stevie Martin, Monkey Barrel ★★★ 

Stevie Martin is part of the generation of comics for whom the internet is a natural home; she has racked up tens of millions of views for her work online, where she had to strut her stuff when the world went into lockdown.

Chris Grace, Assembly George Square ★★★★ 

In Two Minds, Traverse Theatre ★★★★ 

Eric Rushton, Monkey Barrel @ The Hive ★★★★

The Mosinee Project, Underbelly Cowgate ★★★★

In May 1950, a small US town awoke to hammer-and-sickle flags hanging from lamp-posts, its local newspaper transformed into a Soviet propaganda journal, its citizens’ firearms confiscated and handed to loyal communist troops, and – most alarmingly – its mayor detained under armed guard.

Anna Akana, Pleasance Courtyard ★★★★

Jin Hao Li Pleasance Courtyard ★★★★

Jin Hao Li was born in China, raised in Singapore and studied English at a Scottish university. So it’s perhaps not surprising that, in drawing on so many cultural sources, his brand of comedy should be so singular.
