Location: The Den Day: Wednesday Set Time: 14:15 – 14:30

Wigan born Chris began performing comedy in 2012 and in 2017 made his Edinburgh Fringe debut with his self-produced show ‘Dream Big (Within Reason)’ after taking all his annual leave in his full-time job as a postman. The gamble paid off and Chris received a nomination for Best Newcomer despite having no management, promoter or PR. A feel-good underdog story which he describes as getting five numbers and the bonus ball on the comedy lottery.
