Ross Smith
Is social media killing live comedy? Obviously not but it makes a good opening line. However, maybe it is changing it ever so slightly. I've seen a number of shows in Edinburgh this summer where there is less of an element of suprise because I've been aware of the basic plot because I've read about it on Facebook/Twitter/etc as it happened. Ross Smith is a case in point.
Comedian Ross Smith made the headlines earlier this year when he decided to go on a lads' holiday to Hamburg. With a bunch of strangers. And he's not a lad. He was only invited because someone with the same name had dropped out and it meant a free ticket was there for the taking for anybody called Ross Smith. Our hero charted his boozy escapade on Twitter and the story soon went viral. Luckily he just about lived to tell the tale and will be sharing it with audiences in Edinburgh this August in I Am Ross Smith.
