Fred MacAulay: Tour 2008
Mr Radio Scotland himself, Fred MacAulay, is
stepping out of the studio and the hitting the road with a new
show for 2008. Throughout May and June, he’ll be touring the
length and breadth of Scotland taking in major venues such as
Dundee Rep and The Palace Theatre, Kilmarnock together with more
intimate affairs at Cromarty Old Brewery and An Lanntair on
Stornaway.
One thing’s for sure- Fred is no ordinary
comedian and this will be no ordinary tour. Whether it’s an
afternoon gig in the heart of the Cairngorms at Boat of Garten,
headlining The Festival Club at Burns an’ a’ that! or opening
his show with a rousing salute from the Strathpeffer Pipe Band,
Scotland had better expect the unexpected from one of its most
famous comedy faces. And it’s not just the home crowd he’ll be
keeping on their toes- the man is so much in demand that the
tour will also include excursions to renowned comedy festivals
in Kilkenny and Halifax, Nova Scotia.
As well as brightening up our mornings thanks
to his long-running BBC Radio Scotland morning show MacAulay &
Co, Fred is a favourite BBC Radio 4 guest, making regular
appearances on the likes of Loose Ends, I’m Sorry,
I Haven’t A
Clue and The News Quiz. He also has enough TV credits to make
Carol Vorderman look camera shy, including two series of Life
According To Fred for BBC Scotland and STV’s McCoist and
MacAulay and Fred MacAulay’s Fringe.
Now catch Fred doing what he does best as he
presents a brand new package of witticisms about life and living
in Scotland today. Effortlessly warm and conversational, Fred’s
affable demeanour belies a sharp and sometimes dark wit that
really shines in his stand-up. No matter whether an audience is
divided between young and old, alternative or mainstream, the
broad appeal of Fred MacAulay always adds up to a side-splitting
night out.

alive' Sunday Times
