About this show

The People in Our Lives is a one-man show written and performed by Jack Palmer. Making his Edinburgh Fringe debut in 2026, Jack Palmer takes on the role of Jason McDonald, who is the landlord of The Golden Ball. After a raucous night at the bar, Jason reflects upon what has brought him to where he is in life today. Despite losing his way after his dad's death and his mum's multiple convictions, Jason finds himself again as a pub landlord and reunites with his childhood sweetheart, proving that life can always be turned around.
