Multi award-winning stand-up comedian Richard Pulsford takes a nostalgic no holds barred tour into his parents’ past to try to understand how it made them who they were, and therefore the person who he is. With a dad from Yorkshire and a ‘foreign’ mum maybe it shouldn’t be a surprise that Richard ended up being, well, ‘funny’.
'Very Good Show: A tender, well-crafted monologue, tragicomic with bittersweet moments. Pulsford is an easy, humble host, yet confident in his material and his delivery... [It is] relatable, often moving, with tender moments... an hour in the company of an eloquent raconteur... an often darkly funny... intelligent, informative show... This is about how we live the unsymmetrical life, and I was very glad to be there.' (Paul Levy, Fringe Review, July 2026)
Richard won Leicester Comedy Festival’s UK Pun Championships in 2022, has had Top Ten Jokes of the Edinburgh Fringe three times, was interviewed on Channel 4’s ‘Steph’s Packed Lunch’ in 2022 and his one-liner show was nominated for ‘Best stand-up’ at Buxton Fringe 2023.
