He is currently touring two shows - Curse of The Black Seal (an occult themed cabaret double-act show with burlesque performer Seaglass Beach) and Robocop Vs. The Terminator Vs. Gabriel Featherstone (a solo show about being the only comedian left alive after a nuclear war.)

Tootsie Malone
(Burlesque)
Tootsie Malone has been hosting, shimmying and shaking around the burlesque and cabaret scene for four years. She's known for pulling frivolous faces, making bad jokes and bringing her unbridled joy to the stage.

Hot Death Theatre 
(Comedy Double-Act)
Glasgow's premier purveyors of high quality troubling imagery, Hot Death Theatre is comprised of Lawrence Tucker and Freya Bentaux - two hot young bucks making content that makes you want to die. They implore you to sit back, relax, but above all be quiet as you "enjoy" their pitch black comedy stylings that'll make your mum say "...that was probably a bit much, to be honest."
