Comedy / Stand Up

Bruce's comic observations probe deep into medieval Scotland. Shakespeare shamefully misrepresented a man, who was popular in his time, and was the last great Celtic king of Scotland. You get the true Macbeth, the real reasons he came to the throne and the consequences of his death ... oh and jokes along the way.
"His research is deep, his timing is split second. His ad lib ability is amazing" Scottish Daily Record, 2007
"An hour in the company of a delightful Scot... Take your brain to see him, he'll put stuff in it, and you'll feel the better for it." Chortle.co.uk, 2008
Nominated for FRINGE WORLD comedy awards in 2015 and 2017. Named Scottish Comedian of the Year in 2014. Nominated for Scottish Comedy Awards in 2013 and 2014.
