Andrew Bird: On Edge

THE SHOW

Back with a brand-new show, Andrew has just supported Russell Howard on his current national tour including four straight shows at The London Palladium. He has also recently supported Rhod Gilbert and Troy Hawke and at The UK Comedy Awards 2023 was voted Comic's Comic-Best Act.

Andrew is always worried or stressed about something. From global events to finding free parking. From a wife hitting the perimenopause combined with two teenage kids, to

hanging a wine-rack. How can he not be "on edge"? 

Having previously supported Russell at Bristol's Ashton Gate Football stadium he's also supported Rob Brydon, America's Brian Regan and Michelle Wolfe on their only London

shows and Michael McIntyre on an entire arena tour including Wembley and the O2. He was only 1 of 7 comedians to perform in front of Banksy at Dismal Land and he's written

on the recent series of 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown.

"A brilliantly funny comedian" Russell Howard

"Funny as hell" Rhod Gilbert

"Birdie supported me on my arena tour and made me laugh every night. Truly an excellent comedian." Michael McIntyre

"Love it. Never stop, never change" Troy Hawke
