We're absolutely buzzing to hear that Amy Gledhill's Edinburgh show 'Make Me Look Fit on the Poster' has won this year's Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Comedy Show. The awards took place on Saturday night.
Accepting her award, she said: 'This is insane. I saw the other people on this list and I thought "I don't have to write a script!"'
She paid credit to her best friend and Delightful Sausage double-act partner Chris Cantril, who was also nominated for his solo show 'Easily Swayed'.
Reviews for her show have been phenomenal with Awards judge Dominic Cavendish (The Telegraph) declaring her "on her way to becoming a national treasure".
★★★★★ "larger than life, gleeful, salacious and as warm as any heatwave" - The Telegraph
★★★★★ "With the energy and vivacity of Dawn French and stacks of comedy gold and charisma, Amy is warm, exceptionally engaging and lots of fun" - One4Review
★★★★ "This crackling hour proves why she’s worked her way to become one of the most in-demand comics on the circuit" - The List
★★★★ "an unforgettable stand-up routine that enthrals the audience from start to finish...Her ability not to shy away from the physicality of comedy pushes into the realm of greatness. Her relatable stories and warmth on stage make her perfect in every way" - Entertainment Now
Her UK tour of the show kicks off in mid-September, visiting venues across the country including in Manchester, Newcastle, Glasgow, London and Bristol. Tickets are on sale now so grab them before they sell out.
