Overview

Father Christmas is a stand-up comedy show by Chris Forbes, a star of Scot Squad. The material turns to the festive season, from decorations to the family rituals that surround it, and centres on a single Christmas Day that proved pivotal for the performer.

The writing blends jokes with personal storytelling, so the show moves between big laughs and more reflective passages on fatherhood and family life. The tone is comic at one moment and tender at the next. It is pitched at anyone with strong feelings about Christmas, whether affectionate or dismissive.

The production is staged at Oran Mor, a Glasgow venue that hosts concerts and shows, as part of the Glasgow International Comedy Festival.
