Laura Lexx is set to bring a work-in-progress show to The Gilded Saloon in Edinburgh on Monday 17 August 2026. The comedian, whose previous offering *Slinky* claimed Best Show at the Women in Comedy Festival and earned two Best International Deb nominations, will be testing fresh material. Her set delves into the realities of a decade-long marriage, exploring what it means to have a partner who witnesses every questionable decision and unfiltered thought, yet continues to offer love regardless. Lexx’s writing has consistently attracted four- and five-star reviews from the *Scotsman*, *Guardian* and *Telegraph*, and she was also nominated for the Edinburgh ISH Awards Best Show in 2025. Tickets for the performance can be secured through the venue’s website.
