Description
From seagulls to Shakespeare, from daddy problems to dog podcasts, join Ethan Madds and Emerson Young on a magical mystery meander along the scenic route through their weird-yet-wonderful worldviews, in this uproarious, unpredictable celebration of neurodivergent minds and experiences. It's safe to say no two of these shows will be the same – but however chaotic the journey, the destination will always be hilarious! 'Ethan Madds didn't just raise the roof, he took it home with him too' (Wreck The Mic Comedy). 'Emerson Young is sweet and occasionally filthy, which is a killer combo' (Scotsman).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.

Absolutely fantastic performance - great comedy. We saw Emerson perform the day before and, after all the laughing, knew that we had to go to see him again. As expected, Emerson and Ethan both had us in stitches. Well-worth the money, could not recommend more if you fancy a good time and some serious wit! A must-see show for the Fringe 2024!

My girlfriend and I rocked up at 11:45 on Thursday to see Neurodiversions and, to be fair, it was well worth the trek. It was such a fun show and both of us were howling at Emerson and Ethan's routines (as well as the unscripted parts). Both had clearly worked hard on their stand up and we would recommend it to anyone considering going! 10/10 would love to see you guys again next year :)
