Heel Boy

Helloooooo! So I’ve been “stand-up comedy adjacent” for a while, doing The Moira Monologues and the like, but I’ve decided to jump in at the deep-end with my debut show, HEEL BOY, as part of the Glasgow International Comedy Festival at The Stand Comedy Club in Glasgow on March 14th (12pm). Heel Boy is about how one straight(ish) man learned to love wearing stilettos and is directed by Kirstin McLean, who not only was in Limmy’s Show, but directed by recent show WHEN BILLY MET ALASDAIR. Tickets for HEEL BOY are available here.

“Howlingly funny and unnervingly sharp.” 5***** The Scotsman on The Moira Monologues

“He’s proven, yet again, that his standing as a man of the Scottish arts continues to grow year upon year.” – 5***** British Theatre Guide on When Billy Met Alasdair

“Utterly compelling. It’s his storytelling that really holds the hour together.” – 4**** The List on The Red Hourglass

Also, I’ll be taking my recent Edinburgh Fringe show THE RED HOURGLASS round the country in 2027/28 (will keep you posted with dates) and completing the WHEN BILLY MET ALASDAIR tour at Pitlochry Festival Theatre on Feb 21st and Eden Court, Inverness, on March 26th. Tickets available here (Pitlochry) and here (Inverness)
