Rachel Galvo: Work in Progress 

Rachel is an Irish comedian based in London who has burst onto the live scene, making waves on both sides of the Irish Sea.  As a 2023 graduate of Mountview’s prestigious Musical Theatre program, Galvo combined her interest in feminism and comedy—explored in her thesis on Women and Feminism in Comedy—with her wit and natural stage presence, to launch her own stand-up career.

With almost no experience in performing comedy, her debut solo show, The Shite Feminist, landed with a bang, selling out venues across the UK and Ireland, including Dublin’s Olympia theatre. The show earned Rachel critical praise as well as a fiercely loyal fanbase across her social media.

Following a breakout run at the 2024 Edinburgh Fringe, Rachel triumphantly returned in 2025 to critical acclaim, before taking the show on tour.  She holds the record for the most shows performed at the renowned Ambassador Theatre in Dublin.

 

Fab Goualin: Work in Progress 

Mixed Messages will be the debut Edinburgh Fringe hour from BBC New Comedy Award ‘25 Semi-Finalist, Leicester Square Theatre New Comedian of the Year ‘25 Finalist and So You Think You’re Funny? ‘24 Finalist, Fab Goualin. It’s a show about being mixed-race, middle-class, and misunderstood. 

Growing up, Fab was often the only person of colour in the room, which meant a lifetime of awkward assumptions, accidental anthropology, and people confidently explaining his own identity back to him. Too “something” for certain crowds, not “something enough” for others, he became a master of the code-switch. But the real confusion wasn’t just external, it was internal. What does identity mean when you’ve spent your life adapting to fit every room you walk into? 

With sharp writing, playful honesty, and expertly timed raconteurship, Mixed Messages explores race, class and belonging through the lens of someone who’s always felt both included and excluded at the same time.
