Comedian and TV star Desiree Burch makes her highly anticipated return to the Edinburgh Fringe this August with her brand new show The Golden Wrath which will be followed by a UK tour in the Autumn through to Spring 2026. Tickets for her Edinburgh Fringe run are on sale now at EdFringe.com and tickets for the tour will be on sale from Friday 30th May at 10am and available from desireeburch.com.
Six years after her acclaimed show Desiree’s Coming Early and standout appearances on hit UK comedy shows like Taskmaster and Live at the Apollo, Desiree Burch returns with The Golden Wrath – a bold new show that showcases her signature blend of fearless storytelling and magnetic charisma. The show premiered at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and received rave reviews, including a five-star rating from the Sydney Morning Herald.
Desiree said: “There comes a day when you look around and wonder “is the world a raging bin fire, or is it perimenopause?” The answer, my friend, is “yes”.”
Authentic, curious, and gleefully irascible, storyteller and comedian Desiree Burch leads a madcap voyage through the Middle Ages – AKA the mid-life crisis, and its mandatory metamorphosis – in her new standup hour. Desiree brings both childlike wonder and crone-like wit to the experiences of losing sleep, relevance, knee cartilage, oestrogen, youth, and illusions in a laugh-packed hour that celebrates the fury and freedom found when you’ve accepted that time has ruined your plans, but roll up your sleeves to fight it anyway.
Desiree Burch is a comedian, writer, actor, and voice actor who has firmly established herself as one of the heavy-hitters of the UK comedy scene. Since winning the Funny Women Stage Award and a Fringe First theatre award in 2015, Desiree has gone on to become a regular guest on shows like The Last Leg, Have I Got News For You, and QI, as well as the unmistakable voice and host of Netflix’s smash-hit reality series Too Hot To Handle.
