Description

What happens when a songwriter invites innocent bystanders on the streets of Edinburgh to share their most embarrassing memories and comedic confessions? They end up in his show that same night! Hugely relatable, Tom Veck brings charm and warmth to this five-star show, where domestic ditties mingle with stories from his peculiar past and the confessions of strangers. His expertly crafted songs will have you on the edge of your seat wondering What the Veck is coming next! And who knows, you just might win a prize in the Naffle!

Comedy to music - delivered in a gentle and amusing way. Unique take on a raffle and quirky items. Something in this for everyone.

Tom is a treat! He will tickle your inner child, impress your wise adult, and thoroughly entertain all the parts of you. Let him share his gifts with you - I'm not joking - there's even a raffle! :)

Tom Vek is hilarious, but there are lots of hilarious people at the fringe. What makes Tom the one to watch, indeed, the one to make sure you don’t mess, is the originality, creativity, humility, joy, and utter care he offers to his audiences. You get the feeling this guy can do anything with nothing.

Oh yeah, there is also the raffle, I mean, the naffle! I won an item in last year’s naffle that I have kept with me as I’ve traveled the world the last 12 months. It’s ugly as sin, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Do yourself a favor, go enjoy the show.
