Tom Skelton: VIP (Visually Impaired Papa)

Tom Skelton: VIP (Visually Impaired Papa)

Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2026

After losing most of his sight, Tom thought he might never become a dad. But now he is. And he's a bit scared. From nappy changing, choking hazards, losing your toddler in the park, to not being able to read to him, see his changing face, or his first goal on the football pitch, this is a hilarious, heartfelt scamper through dadhood and disability. 'Deliciously talented' (Guardian). 'Sends you back out into the world with a spring in your step' (Chortle). 'Insightful, hilarious... expertly crafted' ***** (TulpaMagazine.wordpress.com). Perth FringeWorld Weekly Comedy Award Winner 2020.
