Connor Burns

Gallus* is Connor’s fourth solo hour. A prolific joke writer whose lightning fast, razor-sharp wit combines with his signature single malt Scottish-level cynicism to help create the perfect storm of brilliant jokes performed by a disarming comedy powerhouse and, now more recently, has seen Connor become a social media star.

Connor’s previous smash-hit show 1994 sold 10,000+ tickets in Edinburgh, sold out 2 solo Glasgow King’s Theatre dates and toured worldwide (including 50+ UK shows, 35+ in Australia, 15 shows across Europe and included an off-Broadway run as part of 2024’s New York Comedy Festival). Winner of the prestigious international Fringe Encore Series in both 2025 and 2024, Connor has supported Daniel Sloss in 3 continents and filmed his debut special Vertigo, for world-wide release on the prestigious 800LB Gorilla comedy label.
