Quip Shed Comedy is delighted to host its first ever season of Edinburgh preview shows at Linden House in Hammersmith!
For our first show in May we have the incredible Ian Smith and Janine Harouni performing previews of the shows they are taking to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival this summer!
Multi award-winning comedian Ian Smith (BBC Radio 4’s The News Quiz and co-host of the Northern News podcast) presents a new show about stress, love and driving a tank with your hairdresser. Amused Moose Comedy Award and ThreeWeeks Editors’ Award Winner 2017. British Comedy Guide Recommended 2018 and 2019. 'Catch him now before his inevitable jump to the big time' (Telegraph). 'An effortlessly brilliant stand-up show' **** (Scotsman). 'A riot of sprightly silliness' **** (Chortle.co.uk). 'One of the best you will see at the festival' ***** (Mirror).
Janine Harouni thought she knew her family. Then she took a DNA test and things got messy.
Off the heels of her New York Times recommended show ‘Stand Up With Janine Harouni (Please Remain Seated)’ comes a new hour from the Edinburgh Best Newcomer nominee. A work-in-progress exploring Janine’s Arab roots, pregnancy, and what happens when your DNA test does not go to plan.
Star of her own Amazon Prime stand-up special. Seen and heard on The Russell Howard Hour, The John Bishop Show, Comedians Giving Lectures, Question Team, The Stand Up Sketch Show and The Now Show.
