THE SHOW

Twice nominated for the Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Show (2018, 2022) and previously for Best Newcomer (2015), Larry Dean has firmly established himself as one of the UK’s leading stand-ups.

Named by The Telegraph as one of the 50 Best Comedians of the 21st Century, his live performances have earned a string of ★★★★★ reviews, with The Herald calling him “a national treasure” and Rolling Stone praising him as “stitch-inducingly funny…an expert regaler of daft.”
His TV credits include Live at the Apollo (as both host and guest), QI, Mock The Week, Michael McIntyre’s Big Show, Richard Osman’s House of Games, and The Royal Variety Performance 2024. He has fronted multiple series of the BBC New Comedy Awards, starred in Stand Up Sketch Show (ITV2), Comedy Central’s Roast Battle, and appeared on World’s Most Dangerous Roads (Dave).   
Larry’s reach extends far beyond the stage, with over 150 million views online and a combined social following of more than one million across TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and YouTube.

MONKEY BARREL COMEDY

Monkey Barrel Comedy has been ‘Scotland’s Best Comedy Venue’ since 2020 (Chortle Awards) and was described by The List as “a year-round Edinburgh institution”. It has over 500 5-star reviews on TripAdvisor, making it one of the city’s top-rated year-round attractions.

The club was home to both of 2022's Edinburgh Comedy Awards winners, Best Comedy Show 2023 and Best Comedy Show and Best Newcomer 2024. It has been described as the "Beating Heart" of the Fringe by The Telegraph and “the best comedy club in the world” by comedian Olga Koch.
