Paul Sinha returned to the Edinburgh Fringe in 2025 after a dramatic 2023 that saw him booking a ticket to Edinburgh’s Royal Infirmary half-way through his run. The autumn that followed became a flurry of tests, scans and finally the surgery which set him on the road to recovery. With no small debt to the NHS, Paul celebrated his 30th anniversary in stand-up last year and despite his continued quiz successes, his Radio 4 series, and his decision to write a memoir, rather than a hastily patched together murder mystery, Paul is not ready to exit the stage just yet - he is delighted to be touring his latest Edinburgh Fringe show around the UK.

12 must-see comedy shows at Edinburgh Fringe 2025
‘It seems wrong-headed to describe a much-loved household celebrity as ‘underrated’, but there’s a strong case for Sinha being exactly that.
The contention being that he’s (arguably) celebrated for the wrong thing. He may entertain as a Chaser and impress as a quizzer, but he truly shines on stage.
Sinha is an absolute worldie of a stand up and the fact he’s a bona fide polymath shouldn’t dilute that fact.’ Rolling Stone
★★★★★ ‘In short, it is clever. It is honest. It is very, very funny.’ Broadway Baby
★★★★★ ‘An upbeat, quick-witted, wide-ranging, gag heavy comedy show. Sharp and self-deprecating, every gag lands.’ On the Mic
★★★★★ ‘Banging one-liners and some pithy ditties on the keyboard. On this defiant evidence, the Sinhaman is far from gently going into that good night.’ Mail on Sunday
★★★★★ ‘Dry wit and sharp humour.’ West End Best Friend
