Lefty Scum | The Dancehouse | Fri 3 Nov | 7pm |£15/12
Speaking of the left, Josie Long and her Daily Mail taunting pals are taking a tour around the country in order to put to rights the woes of the nation. These rampant socialists present a night of comedy and music at a reasonable price as Long is joined by folk artist Grace Petrie and satirical songsters Jonny and The Baptists. All hated by the right for the temerity to have compassion for other humans expect liberal laughs and a good deal of good will.

Rob Kemp’s The Elvis Dead (pictured)| Gorilla | Sat 4 Nov | 7pm | £8/10
Every year at The Edinburgh Fringe there is one show that everyone is talking about but gets overlooked by the big awards. In August 2017 that show was ‘The Elvis Dead’, Rob Kemp’s paean to Evil Dead 2 via the medium of Elvis songs. A gory, hilarious and surprisingly tuneful love letter to the two true Kings (Presley and Bruce Campbell). Group Therapy are joyfully bringing this show to Gorilla with support from colourful cartoonist Bec Hill and their favourite MC Danny McLoughlin.
