Coronavirus: Catherine Cohen pulls London gigs

Citing Trump's travel ban

Edinburgh best newcomer Catherine Cohen has pulled the rest of her London dates, becoming the latest victim of the coronavirus scare.

The comic is based in New York and says the gigs have been pulled in light of upcoming travel restrictions between the US and Europe announced by President Donald Trump late last night.

Dates at Bush Hall tonight and tomorrow, and at Soho Theatre also tomorrow, have been dropped and ticket-holders will get refunds.

Her publicist said: ‘Catherine sends her apologies and will be back in the UK soon.'

The travel ban comes into effect tomorrow, although flights between the UK and the US are not affected.
