Multi award-winning 'comic genius' (Scotsman) and the new star of Taskmaster (Channel 4), Phil Ellis returns to Edinburgh on his first full national stand-up tour. Following his three big award wins at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe, Phil, the very definition of funny bones, presents his show Bath Mat. Jam-packed with laugh-out-loud profound silliness, superbly crafted gags and constant surprises, Phil is bringing his Bath Mat to a city near you. ***** (Mirror). 'Every moment he is on stage something funny, and then funnier, is happening' ***** (Scotsman). ****½ (Chortle.co.uk).
