Discover the unparalleled charm and comedy of Bruce Fummey, where humour meets Scottish history and insightful storytelling.
Bruce, the comedian behind the 230k subscriber YouTube channel Scotland History Tours, returns to Stirling with a new show. Laughs galore and quirky observations as he explains how Scotland Made the World.
His unique style showcases and celebrates Scottish culture and history, in a way that will not only keep you fully engaged, but have you rolling with laughter and screaming for more!
