150% Badgers is a stand-up comedy show about how the worlds of
humans and badgers collide. Matt takes us on his journey from a
passing interest in badgers to an obsession that led to him
standing in a field looking at a caged, frightened badger caught up
in the controversy of the bovine TB debate. In a
unique mash up, Matt will perform his critically acclaimed sell-out
2025 Edinburgh Fringe show 100% Badgers and then share what is it
like become one of the country’s premier badger comedians. We’ll
take a trip into the bizarre and hilarious world of the badger
sett, following the tunnels and seeing where
we end up.
'His storytelling is gripping, his facts are fascinating and his
punchlines are perfectly timed'★★★★ ½
(Edinburgh-Reviews.co.uk).
“... a fusion of badger facts, sharp jokes and winning West Country
charm... it’s a show about badgers – but this is no gimmick.”
★★★★
(Broadway Baby.)
