The first solo show from David Callaghan (BBC New Comedy Awards 2012 and 2013). As heard on BBC Radio's Jesting About. 'An impressive performance... delivering self-deprecating routines with a captivating, Kitson-esque lilt' (GiggleBeats.co.uk). 'Callaghan does an excellent job... undeniably charismatic and witty' (Chortle.co.uk). 'Callaghan has the potential to be a much better comedian.' ** (BroadwayBaby.com).

These Lanes I Watch Into The Fog
My aim is to completely update this website this spring (2026), but until then I'll just tell you that previews for the new show These Lanes I Watch Into The Fog are underway and I'm excited to be bringing some new gear out on the road in the near future.
I'm most active on Instagram and Bluesky at the moment, but I'll be making an effort to get all the tour details up on here once we know where we are.
Everything That's Me Is Falling Apart
I've been touring this show around for a little while, its been lovely to do and nice to recieve some nice things along the way. It's coming to the end with some dates in Turku, Finland, and London before I drive it and the van into the sea.
Hello.
I've got a show at Glasgow this month. Its part of CHUNKStival, which you can find all about at www.facebook.com/chunkstival. My show

Here's my fringe show for 2016.
Hi guys, I've been doing a fair amount recently but I've not really put much of it up here. I'm doing my photoshoot this week for my new fringe show 'Lets Get This Partly Started', so I'll have
print stuff soonish. Its part Stand up show, part Planetarium Experience. I've bought this acrylic hemispheric mirror (see photo), and using projectors on it, I can create an indoor planetarium. God
I hope it works.
