Ayo Adenekan: Homeland Insecurity

Ayo Adenekan: Homeland Insecurity

Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2026

BBC New Comedy Award finalist and writer for SNL UK returns following his sold-out debut, with a romantic new hour. A summer fling in hospitality spirals into something far messier. Ayo explores summer romance and the cost of chasing your dreams. Effortlessly charming and razor-sharp, Ayo blends big laughs with beautifully observed storytelling about work, desire and the chaos of catching feelings when you really shouldn't. Winner: Best Newcomer, ISH Edinburgh Comedy Awards 2025. As seen in Queen of The New Year and Scotland Stands Up (BBC). 'Masterfully sharp' ***** (BingeFringe.com). 'Comedy gold' **** (Herald).
