The Raging Bull 161 Lothian Road Cellar: AUG 6-18 at 22:15 (60 min) - Pay What You Can tickets - from £2.50 Book PWYC Tickets Pins & Needles Pins & Needles is a high-voltage stand-up comedy show where ink meets irreverence. Hosted by New York comedians Justin Hartmann and Taylor Drew, this no-holds-barred showcase features heavily tattooed comics who strip down to their underwear & show off their art, all while making you laugh. Part comedy show, part living gallery, Pins & Needles celebrates the stories behind the ink—regretful tattoos, meaningful tributes, impulsive decisions, and everything in between—told with biting humor and zero shame. It’s raw, ridiculous, and refreshingly honest, blending body positivity with fearless stand-up.
