Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2017 – Chris Turner: What a Time To Be Alive
Chris’s quotable gags and rapid freestyle raps have established him as one of the most in-demand acts on the corporate circuit and at comedy clubs across the UK.
His keen wit and intelligent wordplay have seen him rack up over 5 million views on YouTube; headline for 1 million Dutch comedy fans on RTL4’s flagship stand up show, The Comedy Factory; appear live on BBC Radio 2 and 6Music and perform sold-out runs at festivals worldwide.
In 2014, his debut show Pretty Fly won the Amused Moose People’s Choice award for best show at the Edinburgh Fringe. His fiercely personal 2015 show XXV was called ‘The best show I’ve reviewed in seven years’ by The List’s Murray Robertson. In 2016, Observational Tragedy won Best Comedy at the Adelaide Fringe Weekly Awards, and for the third year running, many of his jokes appeared in multiple ‘Best Jokes of the Fringe’ lists.
