Reviews for SCOTT AGNEW
"Rudely, hysterically funny and brutally, touchingly honest this is not a show for the faint-hearted, but for the tender-hearted. This is autobiographical, explicit comedy at its pinnacle."
Chortle *****
“Likening him to Billy Connolly would seem trite if it weren’t accurate. Always hilarious.”
FringeGuru *****
"A comedic thrill ride, searingly honest, exploding with humanity, laugh out loud funny from beginning to end"
Scotsman ****
Offstage Scott's life has been equally "busy" - leaving behind a career in journalism and selling his house on a whim in 2003 was the start of a years long battle with cyclothymia (a form of bi-polar) taking him on a path to a multitude of addictions including stand-up, crystal meth and injecting drug use before being diagnosed with HIV in 2015 and eventually surviving a heart attack and three cardiac arrests in 2021.
