Don’t Bother: Award-winning unique poetry show heads to Edinburgh Fringe

The stand-up poetry show Don’t Bother, starring multi award-winning performance poet Bróccán Tyzack-Carlin, will be part of the line-up at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

The comedy and poetry show about dead dogs, chocolate and nostalgia comes to Venue 302, Underbelly Bristo Square fromWednesday 31 July – Monday 26 August.

Alumnus of the Durham Revue, Bróccán Tyzack-Carlin presents a semi-coherent exploration of nothing in particular, using some words that rhyme and some more that don’t.

Blending surreal humour with storytelling and spoken word, Don’t Bother is a unique hour of comedy that is not to be missed.

Bróccán Tyzack-Carlin said: “After developing and performing Don’t Bother for over a year, I am thrilled to finally be able to take it to Edinburgh Fringe for an extended run. It is a joyous, surreal and at times thought-provoking show, and I cannot wait to share it with a wider audience.”

Bróccán is the winner of Best Spoken Word Show at 2019’s Sabateur Awards and Manchester Word War 2018, and is a Hammer and Tongue National Finalist.

What the critics say:

“Intricate, cleverly written, heavily visual and full of wonderful imagination”
Voice Magazine.

“…a performer who may be at the start of his career but is at the top of his game”

««««« Bunbury Magazine: 

 “An hour of pure joy”
Dominic Berry
