FOLLOWING tours of Australia, the UK and his twentieth season at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, a Scottish comedian is bringing his football-themed tour to Peebles.

Renowned for his cheeky, irreverent and high-octane performances, Craig Hill’s razor-sharp improvisation and his audience rapport combine in his C’mon the lads tour.

Craig has sold out his previous 19 Edinburgh Festival Fringe seasons.

A past winner of the Radio Forth Fringe Award, his extensive sell-out UK and worldwide tours include annual comedy festival seasons in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth.

He has performed at London’s Palladium, hosted a specially created alternative variety show Craig Hill’s Forbidden Vaudeville for Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber and in 2015 was UK Ambassador for Montreaux Comedy Festival’s Joke Nation contest.

He has numerous BBC TV series to his name, his international TV credits include Australian comedy panel show Good News Week, hosting Sydney Comedy Festival’s prestigious Cracker Night gala and storming Montreal’s all-alumni showcase The Best Of Just For Laughs as well as hosting their all-star Britcom lineup.

In 2017, Craig donned his gumboots, put on his camouflage kilt and make his Glastonbury debut and earlier this year he headlined the comedy at Holland’s Paaspop festival.

His evening of laughter will take place at Peebles’ Eastgate Arts centre on Friday, November 16, at 7.30pm.

Tickets are £18 and £16 and can be purchased at www.eastgatearts.com or by calling 01721 725777.
