Pleasance Theatre Trust has announced a further 95 shows for its 2026 Edinburgh Festival Fringe programme, significantly expanding its summer line-up.
The newly revealed titles span comedy, theatre and family work, reflecting what the organisation describes as the range and energy of the festival.
The expanded programme brings together global comedy names, Fringe favourites and first-time performers, alongside intimate new writing, large-scale spectacle, returning hits and anniversary productions.
Across its venues, Pleasance will host work from artists at every stage of their careers, with new commissions sitting alongside established productions.
In comedy, additions include the return of award-winning hit One Man Musical by Flo & Joan, Tim Vine’s new stand-up show Sillypun Valley and Alex Edelman’s What Are You Going to Do, following his recent Broadway and HBO success.
Other comedy highlights include new shows from ALOK, Lucy Porter, Matt Forde, Patti Harrison, Kanan Gill, Viggo Venn and Andrew Maxwell, alongside Fringe debuts from performers such as Zachary Ruane, Ify Nwadiwe, Alfie Dundas and Imogen Andrews.
Theatre programming includes the revival 11 ½ Angry Men, reimagining the classic courtroom drama with a cast of comedians, alongside new and returning productions supported through initiatives such as The Charlie Hartill Fund and the Edinburgh National Partnerships programme.
New theatre work includes titles such as Reparations, Remember, Remember!, CAMPITALISM: Three Gays Try to Fix The Economy, Meet Mayor Max and Gameplay, with several productions making their Pleasance premieres.
Milestone anniversaries are also marked, including the 20th Fringe appearance of The Big Bite-Size Breakfast Show and the 10th anniversary return of WE ARE IAN.
Children and family audiences are catered for with shows including Showstoppers! The Kids Show, The Spencer Jones Experimental Kids Show and interactive productions such as Float and Tongue Twisters.
Further comedy, theatre, circus, magic, dance and family shows are set to be announced in the coming weeks as Pleasance builds towards the summer festival.
