Multi award-winning 'comic genius' (Scotsman) and the new star of Taskmaster (Channel 4), Phil Ellis comes to Wolverhampton’s Midlands Fringe in advance of his return to Edinburgh on his first full national stand-up tour. Following his three big award wins at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe, Phil, the very definition of funny bones, presents his show Bath Mat. Jam-packed with laugh-out-loud profound silliness, superbly crafted gags and constant surprises, Phil is bringing his Bath Mat to a city near you.
