We are very sad to hear that our dear friend Vladimir McTavish has passed away.

Vlad was a genuine inspiration. He offered help and guidance to everyone he met on the circuit, and had always been a massive supporter of the highland comedy scene. Words can sincerely not express how much of a legend this man was, and how brightly his light shined.

The world has lost a truly amazing man. We will miss him greatly.

INVERNESS... GET READY!!!

The Comedy Bothy is back at The Tooth And Claw on Friday July 17th! Featuring none other than Bothy favourite... ADAM MCLEOD!

Adam is a mainstay of the Comedy Bothy. His sharp wit, dry tongue and brutal observations has ensured a stellar reputation all over Scotland
Winner of Inverness Comedy Clubs Newcomer award in 2025.
Fresh from his appearance at the Lochaber Pride festival, Adam will be ready and raring to go with a kickass closing show.

The evening will be hosted by another Bothy favourite, CATHY CASH!
We are excited to have Cathy back to host the show. It has been a good couple months since we have had the pleasure. Cheeky yet affable, smutty yet smart. Cathy brings a tremendous atmosphere to the show.

Plus, a great lineup of local highland talent:

MIKE HENDRY
Mike is a highland comedy legend, there's no two ways about it. A wonderfully witty, sharp and surreal man with an act that has been making audiences across the highlands laugh for well over a decade. In the past year he has been a featured performer on the Mikeysline 10th anniversary tour and on a successful run of shows in Orkney. He is also the founder and organiser of Comedy Upstairs.

TOM CAIRNS
Originally hailing from the West Country. Tom has found his home in the highlands and we couldn't be happier. Winner of the Inverness Comedy Club Comedian Of The Year 2025 and organiser of the Dingwall International Comedy Club. Tom explores many topics from marriage and family, to geek culture. All with a wee smattering of musical parody for good measure.

SCOTT FRASER
In a short time Scott has become one of the "must see" comics in this town, or indeed any other town that is lucky to have him grace their stage. A fun, wild act based on youth, family and profound modern observations. His act is a real treat to watch.

KATE GRAHAM
Kate is a wonderfully multi-talented and multi-faceted perfomer. Hailing from Canada, but with close ties to the highlands. She masterfully combines modern life with traditional sensibilities through storytelling and song. We love it when she is in town!

JIMMY WILLIAM
Jimmy is a newcomer to the highland stand-up scene but has made a very good impression in such a short space in time. A loveable mix of energy and edge. We can't wait to have him make his Bothy debut.

Tickets £5, available at the door or from highlandcomedy.co.uk

See you there!
