Glasgow comedian compares east end funerals to '21st birthday parties' in hilarious clip

Alana Jackson, who scooped the Gilded Balloon's So You Think You’re Funny? Award for newcomers to comedy, described the 'electric' atmosphere of the after funeral celebrations.

Hiya pals! It will come as no surprise that Teviot Row House in Bristo Square holds a very special place in our hearts, as well as the hearts of countless performers, promoters and audiences who attend the Fringe each year. While we are obviously gutted at the news that it will not reopen in time for Fringe 2025 as planned, we understand the necessity of the work being done to ensure that it continues to provide modern, accessible facilities from 2026 onwards.

Today, we are thrilled to confirm a three-year partnership with the Edinburgh University Students’ Association, allowing us to not only return to Teviot in 2026 but also host shows in alternative spaces in close proximity to Teviot in 2025, alongside our venue hubs at the National Museum of Scotland and Patter House. We are extremely excited to reveal more information on these spaces in the coming months and can’t wait to bring our signature Gilded Balloon magic back to the area, which was dearly missed in 2024.

Thank you so much for hanging out with us! 💖
Papp, Róbert@TWiStErRob27 Aug 2024
Patter House was my favourite venue this @edfringe. The legendary Pals in Pink are the most welcoming crew, always available, ready and helpful. They ushered Fringers with a huge smile on their faces! Thank you for making my 15 shows at @Gildedballoon more enjoyable! 🙏🏻
