Paul Sinha - Postcards from the Z list
Critically acclaimed, award-winning stand-up comedian, Paul Sinha, is back on the road with his latest show - Postcards from the Z List.
‘This is a faultless hour of comedy’ ★★★★★ Broadway Baby
‘Sinha may class himself as a Z List celebrity but I can assure you he is definitely A list when it comes to being a comedian’ ★★★★★ one4review
Paul returned to the Edinburgh Fringe in the summer of 2015 after a four-year, self-imposed exile during which real life had taken over.
‘Postcards from the Z List is an endearing and gently brilliant show. Sinha is back and he’s as strong as ever’ ★★★★ Edinburgh Festivals Magazine
Looking back, life as a travelling single gaysian delivering lefty, liberal jokes was quite straightforward.
‘A typically classy, self-effacing hour... densely funny and accomplished comedy’ ★★★★ The Scotsman
Now he has to juggle the responsibilities of being an uncle, being in an actual relationship for the first time in twenty years, and being that bloke, from that quiz, in that poorly-fitting white suit. It’s not easy.
‘There is not a moment wasted, not a moment when you will not be hanging on his words, not a moment when you will not be sharing his exuberant zest for life. This is a very strong performance by a man who clearly wants to be the best comedian he can be and who seems well on the way to being that’ ★★★★ ScotsGay
‘Fiercely sharp, poignant and on top form’ ★★★★ The Skinny
‘Whip-smart comedy’ ★★★★ Time Out
‘Beautifully crafted’ ★★★★ Fest
