Description
Embracing her innate comedic flair, Kim Blythe, aka Kimbo from TikTok, ventures into the world of stand-up comedy in her twice sold-out show Might as Well. This show offers a candid glimpse behind the camera, sharing tales from her childhood to navigating the pitfalls of adulthood. As she takes her humour beyond the screen, Might as Well dives into Kim's unique perspective as she attempts to live up to previous online comments such as 'for a woman, you're quite funny' and 'I don't like lgbt but ur the exception'.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

I adored this show and am routing for Kim's wild success so that I personally can see more glorious monologues.
I laughed until I cried at the way she described adolescence in the aughts.
To venture into being sincere- I'm a sensitive person. A lot of stand up leaves me feeling uncomfortable. Somehow Kim has the talent to joke about 9/11 and I still felt at ease.

Kim Blythe is a force of nature in Scottish comedy, and a must-see rising star on the British stand-up scene. Her sold-out show had the entire audience roaring with laughter from start to finish.
Kim's hilarious self-reflection acts like a mirror, showing us the absurdity of the world around her. Her jokes are sharp, witty, and constantly surprising. She is one to watch.
Kims strength is within her story telling ability, effortlessly connecting with the audience, guiding us through a comical journey with the skill of a seasoned comedian. It's hard to believe this is her debut Fringe show - Kim is a natural-born performer who belongs on the biggest stages. More of this, please!

Laughed solidly for an hour. Kim is the best stand up I saw at the fringe (possibly ever). Witty, observant and so relatable!

Went to see Kim with a group of friends after following her journey on TikTok and she did not disappoint! An absolute up and coming one to watch! We laughed from the moment she came on stage to the moment she left - very relatable humour for everyone! Would 100% recommend this show!

Booked tickets to Kim’s show after being a fan of her TikTok content and the humour definitely carried over into her show. Absolutely hilarious, I never stopped laughing and the way she was able to banter with the audience made the show even better! Go see her!

What a hoot and one very talented individual. Laughed from start to finish. Well written and flowed so well. A very clever relatable piece of comedy from the get go. Kimberley is for sure the one to watch on the comedy scene. Ps we now have a picture of your arse.

Hilarious from start to finish! Very well written and Kim is able to read the room and use that for humour at time which make the show stand out even more! Hands down one of the funniest comedians I’ve ever seen! 10/10 and 5 stars from me and my friend!!!! Highly recommend!!!!

What a fantastic show! Genuinely laugh out loud and hilarious at storytelling. Far, far better than the two other comedians we saw that day.

Seen the show on Wednesday and I can confirm this is well deserving of the 4 stars that Kim gave herself just for decorative purposes, could even be 5 stars. I could have listened to her the whole night - booked more tickets to see the show again. Whether you watch her on tik tok or not, you must see this show if visiting the fringe!!!!

Kim is the real deal when it comes to comedians. Down to earth and fucking hilarious. From the moment Kim steps on the stage to the minute she leaves, you will be laughing. This show does not disappoint

Booked tickets for Kim after watching her on TikTok. Always a bit of a gamble in terms of how online content will transfer to stand-up. The gamble paid off! Kim is very, very funny. There is a real warmth in her manner, and she immediately wins you over. She’s an excellent storyteller and I could have listened and laughed for a further hour.
Kim is shorter than expected.
Just to manage expectations.
