About

5 star critically acclaimed comedians Aaron Wood and Alex Kitson run out their brand new shows ahead of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this August.

Aaron Wood: Despite Literally Everything -

Aaron Wood is one of the UK's most exciting new comics, having racked up three sell-out runs at the Edinburgh Fringe, a successful UK tour and the release of his debut stand up special This Can't Be It on YouTube.

He's supported the likes of Luke Kidgell, Tom Stade and Fin Taylor, and his stand-up and podcast clips have picked up over 100 million views online, earning him a spot on Rolling Stone's list of "Rising Stars to See"

His sharp, original and relatable material has earned him high praise, with reviewers saying:

"Hilarious, a stand-out act" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (The Wee Review)

"Definitely an up-and-coming comedian to watch out for" ⭐⭐⭐⭐½ (The Student)

"Revolutionary" ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (EdFringe Review)

"Expect to see Aaron on a much bigger stage next year" ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Fest Mag)

"A rising star in British comedy!" (BBC)

Having already worked alongside some of the biggest names in stand up, there's no doubt Aaron is becoming a name to look out for in the future.

Alex Kitson: Now Look Here -

Alex Kitson is a multi-award-winning stand-up, writer and performer. His debut hour earned multiple award nominations at the 2024 Edinburgh Fringe, including ISH Edinburgh Comedy Awards Best Newcomer and Dave’s Funniest Joke of the Fringe, with numerous gags picked among the year’s Best Jokes by national press.

His 2025 follow-up, This Is Water, sold out, earned several ★★★★★ reviews, and subsequently named one of the best-reviewed shows of the Fringe by British Comedy Guide.
