Rosco McClelland explores the perils of getting older and embracing it, whilst attempting to cling to your ever declining youth. This is guaranteed comedy brilliance from one of Scottish comedy’s brightest rising stars.
“He has matured massively into an act who enjoys taking chances.. non-stop progression towards stardom”
– Chortle
Rosco’s gravelly and animated onstage presence always impresses audiences, commanding continuous laughter from his audiences, his naturally humorous delivery and surreal observations making a remarkable performance.
Rosco was also chosen as one of Chortle’s ‘Comedians to Watch in 2017’ for his unique comedic voice and hard-working attitude. His is frequently compared to fellow Glaswegian Billy Connolly, as his fragmented story teller style, and of course, his compelling rhythmic melodic voice – always leaves audiences wanting more. His offbeat musings and exaggerated visual imagery feel natural and not forced, as they come from an act with one foot very much planted in the real world.
