Edinburgh Comedy Awards nominee and star of the upcoming Last One Laughing Halloween Special, Harriet Dyer is heading out on a UK tour with her hit show Easily Distra… fresh from an incredible run and a nomination for Best Show at the Edinburgh Fringe 2026. Tickets are available from 10am on Friday 25th September at https://harrietdyer.com/live/.
Following her Live At The Apollo debut, and after capturing the hearts of the nation on 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, the tour gives one final chance to catch Easily Distra… and spend an evening with Harriet, who The Times branded a ‘joyful distraction,’ and what more do we need in these current times than a joyful distraction?!
Harriet Dyer said: “I loved doing Easily Distra... every day at Edinburgh Fringe and was overwhelmed with how well received it was. It's genuinely such a fun show to perform and I am so looking forward to these final outings of my now award-winning show! Will be wanging in some newer stuff too. Can't wait!”
Easily Distra… began as a show about Harriet’s questionable attention span but has since evolved into something more personal, charting big shifts in her life while still embracing her trademark whimsy. Straight from Harriet’s somewhat fizzy mind, the show explores everything from wearing a wetsuit on a bus, to what happens when you accidentally set up a recurring online order for fake slugs , and the benefits of trying to get a cow to lick the top of your head.
Harriet has firmly established herself as one of the UK’s most original comic voices and is also set to grace TV screens across the UK as part of the stellar lineup for the highly anticipated Halloween Special of Prime Video’s Last One Laughing, which launches in October.
Harriet Dyer is an award-winning comedian, writer and mental health advocate. She won the Channel 4 Sean Lock Comedy Award in 2024, after winning the Neurodiverse Review Award for Neurodiversity Representation at the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe.
