About This Event

Fab Goualin brings his debut Edinburgh show to Teviot Row House on Wednesday 5 August 2026, a set drawn from his recent run as a semi-finalist in the BBC New Comedy Awards and finalist in both Leicester Square Theatre’s New Comedian of the Year and So You Think You’re Funny? The show, titled Mixed Messages, explores what it means to grow up mixed-race and middle class in Britain, often as the only person of colour in the room. Goualin’s comedy turns a lifetime of awkward assumptions and well-meaning misunderstandings into sharp, observational material, with a warmth that keeps the audience on his side rather than squirming. His ability to find humour in accidental anthropology and everyday microaggressions suggests a performer who can make you laugh while quietly making you think. Tickets are available via the venue’s website.

Fab Goualin brings his unique perspective and sharp wit to the stage, drawing from his experiences as a mixed-race, middle-class individual navigating a predominantly white world. His ability to find humour in accidental anthropology and everyday microaggressions suggests a performer who can make you laugh while quietly making you think.

The show, titled Mixed Messages, is a deeply personal and relatable account of Fab's journey, tackling themes of identity, belonging, and the complexities of being caught between different worlds. As a seasoned comedian, Fab has honed his craft through various competitions, including the BBC New Comedy Awards, Leicester Square Theatre's New Comedian of the Year, and So You Think You're Funny?.
