Edinburgh Fringe 2025: Gavin Mitchell at The Stand (August 18, 2-3pm)
On August 18th, actor, artist, comedian, and surely Scotland's most (in)famous barman - Still Game's Boabby, no less - Gavin Mitchell reflects on his life and work: from his early days at Glasgow's Citz Theatre through working with Robin Williams and John Byrne, not to mention his starring role in a David Shrigley opera, and his time on Monarch of the Glen. He'll also chat about his choice of a Scottish film, book and album, and he'll bring a very special guest: Bob, his legendary dog. I’ll get the pints in; he’s pulled enough of them (Gavin, that is; I can’t speak for Bob…)
Come hang out for lunch with us! Tickets here.

Previous live show: David Keenan at The Portobello Bookshop (March 27, 2025)
Literary livewire David Keenan (This Is Memorial Device, Xstabeth, For The Good Times), discusses his suitably incendiary new collection of music writing, Volcanic Tongue, live from Edinburgh’s Portobello Bookshop. Thanks so much if you joined us!
