WINNER FRINGE GURU EDITOR’S CHOICE AWARD BRIGHTON 2012
& BUXTON FRINGE BEST INDIVIDUAL COMEDY SHOW 2010
Award-winning comedian Gerry Howell returns to the Edinburgh
Fringe with his much anticipated new stand-up / storytelling show, Gerry Howell: Glorious Invention!
“Smart, surreal, very funny… *****” - Fringe Guru, Brighton Fringe 2012
Welcome to the wonderful, befuddling world of award-winning
comedian Gerry Howell. Gerry's performances lie somewhere between Mr Fantastic
and the mysterious encyclopedia of Uqbar. His imagination casts itself far and
wide as he recounts his early years growing up in a post office or his
experiences playing chess with pandas. He can tell you how Shakespeare was born
in an ostrich egg, or about dressing up as an anagram for an evening out.
“Often likened to a
young Eddie Izzard [Gerry Howell] possesses a wonderfully befuddled stream of
consciousness” - The Guardian
Whilst his mind flings itself from one delicious idea to another, you may
find his body cankering around the stage like a loose nugget of popping corn,
or crawling up the wall like a wild spider. Tread carefully and keep your ears
to the ground...

2011
If you haven't seen Gerry before, expect the unexpected, if you have –
ditto. The greatest pleasure is the pleasure of anticipation. So that's
something to look forward to. Parrot Fashion Accessories: Gerry is expecting
you.
