About the show
Edinburgh Festival Best Show ISH Award shortlisted in 2025. The best-joke-list-bothering, holey-cheese-flinging Falafel is back with another laundry basket full of stuff he hopes you’ll find funny. Including but not limited to: mind reading mic-stands, sausage-based nonsense and art-related buffoonery. It won’t be sensible.
Featuring
Olaf Falafel
A unique mixture of one-liners and Scandinavian-tinged stories has earned Olaf the purely fictitious title of 'Sweden's eighth funniest comedian'. His exploits include being crowned Hitchin, Stroud and Last Minute Comedy new act of 2013, Winning Ricky Grover's Comedy Shuffle Showdown, supporting the equally moustachioed Tony Law and managing to beat the Comedy Store's infamous Gong. 'He's like Thor but way funnier and with a smaller hammer' (Tony Law) 'Skilfully delivered absurdist musings' (Three Weeks).
