Larry Dean: Hellbent : Reviews 2026 : Chortle : The UK Comedy Guide (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Larry Dean has written a love letter to his partner from the Black Country. He’s also written a show that will get you smiling from ear to ear – in a very unchallenging, gorgeously sickly sweet sort of way. Centred on the two questions he asked his now-husband in Edinburgh – the most recent being ‘Will you marry me?’ and the first, ‘Am I a disappointment?’ – it tracks the anxieties surrounding his engagement: whether he was good enough, and the scars past relationships had left him carrying. Dea
MC Hammersmith: Ice Ice Nepo Baby : Reviews 2026 : Chortle : The UK Comedy Guide (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Let’s start with the obvious. MC Hammersmith, West London’s poshest rapper, is an improvising comedy wizard. ‘How the hell did he do that?’ I hear one audience member say upon leaving the theatre. And it’s true: his linguistic gymnastics are sure to leave just about anyone in awe – it is no surprise that he has more than 500 million views on social media. But do his skills manage to keep a crowd amazed for the hour’s entirety? Well, not exactly. Unfortunately for Hammersmith, once we see him cre
Marty Gleeson: Dog Ear : Reviews 2026 : Chortle : The UK Comedy Guide (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Fringe is home to the bonkers and brilliant. And so Marty Gleeson’s debut fits right in. With flashes of musical comedy on the bodhrán and a stretched-out section where she takes the time to shake the audience’s hand, one by one, as we are all at a funeral, Gleeson draws us into a world that is strange, linguistically playful and uniquely her own. Dog Ear is fascinatingly unpredictable. Just when you think you know where Gleeson is going, she veers off in another direction. She approaches th
Margaret Thatcher Queen of Hollywood : Reviews 2026 : Chortle : The UK Comedy Guide (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ding dong, the witch is back! And Britain’s most divisive leader – brilliantly reimagined as a ‘prime miniSTAR’ of the cabaret scene by Matt Tedford – has never looked better. Now she’s leaving Soho for the brighter lights of Tinseltown, where she’s landed the role of a lifetime: playing herself in a remake of The Iron Lady. Aided by some pretty ingenious lyrics, the Fringe favourite meets a movie producer not totally dissimilar to Harvey Weinstein, and her longtime enemy Meryl Streep, who has b
Jill's Tupperware Party : Reviews 2026 : Chortle : The UK Comedy Guide (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We’re all Jill, and we’re here with Jill at Jill’s Tupperware Party. You’re clear on that, yes? Coral Bevan’s show takes us into a surreal, slightly horrific world where Tupperware rules and we must sell as much of it as possible. This isn’t for haters of audience interaction, because you can’t escape taking part in this immersive convention. By the end of the hour, here’s hoping you’ll leave ‘tup-aware’, too. ‘Hi Jill, have you met Jill?’ says Bevan, as, well, Jill, the current reigning King Tu
