About this show

You saw his entrance last year, now Craig bounces back so lock the exits! Belt up for a thrilling, quick-fire comedy flight, packed with razor-sharp wit and spontaneity. He's behind you! Actually, he's in front of you and there's nowhere to hide! A Fringe favourite with wide appeal, Hill has audiences in paroxysms of laughter, barely able to breathe before take off again. Strap yourself in! Expect electric energy, fearless improvisation and the kind of live comedy that turns rooms upside down. 'Craig Hill live is a revelation' (Scotsman).
