Everything we're doing (that we've announced).
Rosa Garland: Primal Bog
12th February - 24th September
Various Venues, UK Tour
Primal Bog is the gorgeously gross new piece from Rosa Garland, creator of Trash Salad (one of The Telegraph’s “Funniest Shows of the Fringe”). In Primal Bog, Garland plunges headfirst into the muck in an hour of clowning, slime, and unfiltered desire that’s been hailed as “filthy and fearless” (The Telegraph) and “a masterclass in comedy” (Metro).
Part psychosexual fever-dream, part Jackass stunt, Primal Bog is “disgusting, daring and unlike anything else” (Fest) and a “thrilling showcase of comic fearlessness” (Chortle) that leaves audiences howling, gagging, and cheering in equal measure.
BIGHEAD Comedy at the 2026 Edinburgh Fringe
5th - 30th August
Various Venues, Edinburgh
Following our hugely successful 2025, BIGHEAD Comedy are delighted to be returning to Edinburgh for another month of distinctive live comedy across the major venues of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
Joining us this year are returning acts Bebe Cave and Cabbage The Clown, as well as a host of brand new BIGHEAD faces, from drag punk superstars Baby Lame and Fanny Bleach to character comedy from Roger Prick, Maya Ricote and Basil Crumbwick, plus American stand-up star Jenny Gorelick.

Want to be on a show?
BIGHEAD run mixed bill shows most months of the year, including Hilarious at Hoxton Hall in Hackney, Live at the Escape in Stratford and Live at Seven Dials Playhouse in Central London.
We also occasionally work with performers and groups on individual projects for performance at venues across London and at festivals around the UK.
We especially encourage acts who come from a non-traditional comedy performance background who would like to try performing on a mixed bill stand-up night.
If you would like to perform at one of our nights, or you have a project you'd like to pitch to us, please send a bio and video clips if you have them to:
