Comedians | Craig Campbell
Once the notorious host of Canada's legendary Ed's Night Party and headline guest on numerous Canadian TV shows (Jim Carrey Live, The Dennis Miller Show and Just for Laughs), Craig is now a regular top line act on the UK circuit.
Craig's unique ability to find humour in the mundane, coupled with his own natural eccentricity makes for truly inventive storytelling. Now an internationally acclaimed act, Craig's whimsical travel anecdotes never fail to surprise.
Craig appeared alongside Tony Law and Dan Antopolski as part of comedy trio The Dinks. Their debut Edinburgh show in 2003 was both a critical and box office success, leading to an invitation to perform in the Best Of Edinburgh programme in New York. Craig has returned to Edinburgh with The Dinks and his own show in 2006.
Bruce Fummey says: Hes simply fabulous. I took him to Kuwait on our trip out there and he was the star of the show. Blew away an audience of 400 from all over the world and had me laughing the whole trip.
