Gareth Waugh


Hailing from Edinburgh, one of Scotlands most loved comedians Gareth Waugh has been ripping comedy rooms up and down the country for the past few years. Waugh's renowned for his engaging storytelling and cleverly crafted punchlines but his real appeal lies in his ability to relate to audiences on so many levels, whether sharing tales from his own life or providing a humorous take on universal experiences. Armed with an affable stage presence and a knack for astute observations, Gareth is poised to solidify his position as a comedic force to be reckoned with in the years to come.
