Comic adds character sketches to her stand-up

Rachel Fairburn has announced a 32-date  tour of her new show Side Eye.

The show – which debuts at the Edinburgh Fringe – will tour from February 6 and will for the first time mix character comedy with stand-up.

Characters include a self-proclaimed grime artist/sex therapist, your slanderous mate, a loose-lipped dame,  a diva with a restraining order, a feckless man, idle parents and the Devil herself. 

As well as her live comedy  Fairburn co-hosts the hit podcast All Killa No Filla with Kiri Pritchard-McLean. It recently celebrated 10 years with a ten-date UK tour.

Tickets for Side Eye go on sale on Friday.
