Out of the swirling maelstrom he steps, his sword of jokes, his shield of whimsy and his armour made of a third amusing thing. Cursed to return to the Fringe, multi award-winning stand-up Alasdair Beckett-King unravels life's shallowest mysteries and 'creates his own multi-faceted world' **** (Scotsman). A true Renaissance man, Alasdair is 500 years old. As seen on Mock the Week and the internet. 'Magnificent, wonderful and hilarious' **** (TheWeeReview.com). ***** (EdFestMag.com). ***** (Edinburgh49.org).

Reviews

Alasdair Beckett-King: Nevermore

This is an extraordinary show: erudite, daft, punning, rammed with gags, rich in characters, autobiographical and visually lively.
