News: The Wrestling Returns To Edinburgh Fringe

Some of the line-up has been revealed for this summer's return of The Wrestling at the Edinburgh Fringe.

The show - which won the Edinburgh Comedy Award Panel Prize in 2011 – takes place this year at the Pleasance Grand at 11pm on August 15 and features a host of comedians taking on real wrestlers in the ring for one night only.

Among those taking part this year are James Acaster, Stuart Goldsmith, Joel Dommett, Lolly Adefope and Richard Gadd, with many more to be announced.

This is the fourth time the show, devised by sketch duo Max & Ivan, has taken place. This year's spectacular has a new twist. It includes a Ladder Match, where fighters have to retrieve an object hanging above the ring.
