Thankyou very much.
I always used to go to the Fringe.
I no longer can.
I have profound physical disabilities.
But you allow me to feel like I'm there.
Really. It's a unique joy to me.
Very, very special.
Thankyou.
Please feel free to increase your price if it subsides comedy like this.
Thankyou.
You've made a difference

Hi, I returned a T-shirt before Christmas and I’m waiting for a refund. I have emailed through the shop app many times but no response, could someone let me know what’s happening?

Hello, about a week ago I posted a query asking why the Samsung tv next up app had been retired, especially since Samsung is the largest selling tv brand by some margin. A couple of people responded to it but there was no official response. I went to look today and see that the post has been deleted. There was nothing rude offensive or even contentious within it. There are other posts about different tv apps in this same community that haven’t been deleted. I’d be grateful for an explanation why it was deleted, especially if it was due to breaking some policy or guidelines.

Oh No - what has happened to the app on smart tv's? Now get a message just saying it no longer exists! :0(

Hello, I heard the cheerful Earfull video would be up here, specifically Pappys. Is that the case? Thanks.

Edinburgh has come to a close and we're into tour season. Many of the great shows up at the Fringe will start to tour, alongside shows that haven't been up there.

Here are six shows I'd absolutely recommend catching on tour:

Laura Smyth : Living My Best Life

https://laurasmyth.com/pages/tour-dates

I love Laura. She's smart, hilarious and says it how it is. She's recently done Live at the Apollo and deserves to be absolutely huge.

Esther Manito : Hell Hath No Fury
https://www.seetickets.com/tour/esther-manito

I've loved Esther since seeing her first hour at Edinburgh a few years back...and she's on FIRE at the moment. Get in there!

Jordan Gray : Is It A Bird?
https://www.comedy.co.uk/JordanGrayTickets/

If you haven't seen this show yet you must! Jordan won our Biggest Award in Comedy at the fringe last year and went on to do multiple TV performances and a sold out show at the Palladium. The talent is insane.


Josie Long : Re-enchantment
https://josielong.seetickets.com/tour/josie-long

Josie is my favourite. She's political and f*cking funny. Her shows are always perfectly crafted and whilst I haven't seen this one, I will certainly be booking in for the tour.


Rosie Jones : Triple Threat

https://rosiejonescomedy.com/live/

Rosie's a national treasure - a must-see act who keeps getting pushed over by naughty Nish Kumar. She writes for and performs on loads of TV shows and this is your chance to catch her live on stage!

Jen Brister : The Optimist

http://www.jenbrister.co.uk/tour/

Jen is one of the funniest acts on the circuit - her rants are legendary. Definitely catch this tour.

It would be great to be able to see what has already been watched or how much has been watched. Just a progress line under the icons would be helpful

We're nearly ready to head up to the fringe again so thought it might be good to share some highlights of 2022 to wet your whistles...

1) We launched our 'Biggest Award in Comedy' and the incredible Jordan Gray won it - going on to perform at the Palladium in London and on numerous TV shows. 

2)We streamed over 60 shows, with themes of gout, death and ADHD coming up a LOT last year (thank you lockdown!)...wonder what 2023's trends will be? (guesses in the comments below please).

3) Jason dyed his hair in NU green in support.

4) We streamed The Wrestling. It was epic.

4) Our flat had a power outage at a crucial moment, so Carlos had to cadge power from the bar below (health and safety please!!).

5) We tried out some striking new posters.

6) Dan's mum was texting him from London about the laughter in the room of one of our live streams. 

7) The bin men went on strike. 

8) Bonus content: we were reminded of our first NU fringe - the NextUp baby is now SIX!

Hi Team,

I've not seen anything via email or posted here but came across the following on LinkedIn. Invest in NextUp | NextUp Comedy


It looks as though you are looking to raise funds. Please can the company elaborate further about this. For example is this to deal with increase costs? Is the plan to raise a large amount of money to push for a further expansion (whether into a new market or to form new partnerships etc).


It would be also be helpful to get a more general update delivered to investors to understand how the company finances are currently.

Thank you
