Book now

Chapeltown Picture House is hosting a double bill of Edinburgh Festival preview shows from two of the most exciting comics around today, Amy Gledhill and Olga Koch. This Monday evening double bill is the perfect cauldron to see two comic minds perform their almost-finished but all-killer Edinburgh Festival shows.

Olga Koch’s show Just Friends starts at 8pm. Olga has previously appeared on Mock The Week, QI, Late Night Mash and Frankie Boyle’s New World Order. Edinburgh Best Newcomer nominee, Olga Koch brings you the roller coaster romcom you aren’t tall enough to ride. Strap in. “Uproarious, gleefully obscene comedy” – The Guardian

Fresh from her star turn on Richard Herring’s acclaimed live interview podcasts, intranet sensation Amy Gledhill makes her Fringe debut with a show about resilience and dancing. Two of the best things. As seen on: Hypothetical, The Stand-Up Sketch Show, Alma’s Not Normal, Late Night Mash, The Emily Atack Show and Richard Ayoade’s Question Team. We’ve banged on about how much we love Amy cover at CT Towers for years now. If for some ludicrous reason you haven’t seen her live or on TV yet, change that this Monday.
