Bruce Fummey brings stories of Scotland to Renfrewshire, wrapping Scottish history and comedy into one hilarious and informative package.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
Bruce has spent fifteen years performing stand-up and creating Scottish history-themed shows for festivals around the world. A former teacher, he has spent the last few years asking YouTube audiences to \u201cLet me tell you a story\u201d in a series of hugely popular videos, amassing an incredible 200k subscribers for his YouTube channel, Scotland History Tours.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
Film and TV roles have followed in the wake of this success and in 2023 he\u2019ll be coming to Kilbarchan to tell stories and jokes in person with a brand-new live show, Stories of Scotland. Nominated for many comedy awards and named Scottish Comedian Of The Year in 2014, Bruce will bring his chirpy, occasionally near-the-bone but self-deprecating style of comedy to spice up some of the stories from Scotland\u2019s past.<\/div>\n
