Winner of Best Comedy Show at the Fringe World Awards and described as “fresh, accessible and hilarious” by The Guardian, Marcel Lucont’s Whine List is a hoot, and it's coming to Forge Comedy Club.

Marcel Lucont is the long-running deadpan French alter-ego of English alternative comedian Alexis Dubus. Without question, he’s the greatest UK-based French comedian around.

The Whine List has existed, in one form or another, for 9 years. Now it’s been turned into a podcast, and this show will be recorded!

The formula is simple; before the show, the audience fills out a questionnaire designed to coax out the most humiliating woes and mishaps, and then Lucont picks them apart on stage with his iconic brand of dry French wit.

“Who can resist Marcel Lucont?… Pulling clever punchlines out of every interaction with his audience… Sometimes arrogance is bliss" ★★★★ The Scotsman, Edinburgh Fringe
