The SomeNews Live Show returned to Edinburgh in 2015 with two shows.
SomeNews "Misstakes" - Don't learn from your mistakes, enjoy the mistakes of other. Join Mr Steve N Allen in a look at how people have messed up so badly it made the news. Companies miss-selling, accountants who can't add up and politicians who sext the wrong people, no body is perfect but you'll leave this show feeling slightly more perfect in comparison.

Price: Free
Show Time: 7:15pm
Dates: August 6-30

The SomeNews show has been toured round many comedy festivals including Brighton, Leicester, Nottingham and Manchester. Here's what the reviewers had to say:
"His improvisation was impressive, topical jokes quick and practised on his tongue. This is a tight, upbeat show that I would recommend going to see." - Broadway Baby
"Allen hits the mark more often than not, with an effusive mix of biting satire and gleeful mud-slinging that recalls Russell Howard by way of Ian Hislop. More than worth a look." ★★★★ - Three Weeks
"Well informed wit." - Latest7
"What was evident here, is the performer is quality, his mockery, and the excellent use of accents combined with clever voice-over interaction; is a performer with masses of talent." - Fringe Review
