Mathematician Hannah Fry brings her wit and warmth to her stand-up show 'Come Fry With Me' at the Edinburgh Playhouse.
Hannah Fry brings her show Come Fry With Me to the Edinburgh Playhouse on Thursday 7 October, starting at 7.30pm. It's a one-night stop in the city, though the run continues into the following day.
Fry is a mathematician by trade, and that's exactly where the show comes from. She's built her following on viral social media clips, award-winning documentaries, a hit podcast, and appearances on major entertainment shows, with more than four million followers and a place among TIME100's most influential digital voices of 2026. The show itself is designed to make complex ideas accessible and leave audiences seeing the world differently, and she brings her signature sass, wit and warmth to the stage to do it. If you've come across her clips online, this is the full-length version.
Her broadcasting work covers a fair bit of ground: The Rest Is Science (Goalhanger), AI Confidential (BBC Two), the Emmy-winning The Future (Bloomberg), The Secret Genius of Modern Life (BBC Two), Have I Got News For You (BBC One) and Curious Cases (BBC Radio 4). She's also a prizewinning author, with The Mathematics of Love and Hello World: How to be Human in the Age of the Machine already out, and her 2027 book No One Knows What They're Doing to follow.
