Some words (2020);&#38;nbsp;

	My name is nate kitch and I am writing this, or so it seems, no I am writing this but who is me? my mind? It doesn’t matter nor does it matter why I am writing this, I am writing this cos I am and I will probably put this up on a website and that would be how you the reader are reading this, some of you won’t read this, many will feel it is too long and that is fine it’s not for you, it’s not for anyone really, it’s mainly for me, otherwise... why do it? I write this at a time when all feels lost and the very “structure” of how this form presents itself is as with many other things, in jeopardy and what is jeopardy? it throws in new things it moulds and it destroys, it is Chaos and Havok.
 I speak as someone who doesn’t know what he is doing but what does anyone know, all I know is that my approach is correct for it is the one that I am making and therefore my output can only be true. You can reject this all you like but that is simply logic and if you argue against logic you become one of those nationalists; waving away waving to your past that protects you from all that comes your way. So yeah this isn’t finished, nor is anything, until it dies, like I will, and you, are we really all that different? I am Nate Kitch and by using this platform I give myself the appearance of appearing 1) more established and 2) “alt” or as some of the “critics” have said “Bold”.
	I do not have anything to say that would warrant the use of a second column.

“a show for true comedy aficionados. Not because it is very, very funny – which it is.

Chortle“It’s comedy theatre, arty, stylish and cool. &#38;nbsp;And there’s something extraordinarily watchable about Kitch“

“if you like Stewart Lee, Daniel Kitson, Simon Munnery, or Steve Reich, you'll love it. If you don't, you'll still love it. Pure brilliance.”

“⭐️ - The Comedic Equivalent of Modern Art

If the premise of this show is the subjectivity of art as other reviewers have said then it hit its mark hard for me. I'd liken this show to one of those modern art pieces admired by the drastically dull or the sneeringly intellectual: It is utterly pointless so that academics can argue over its meaning.

Call me a philistine but I'm unashamed to say I was a walkout from this show.

I was very apprehensive about seeing this after watching Nate's 5 minute set where he literally said nothing online, but decided to give it a go. Was pleasantly surprised that he at least came in and started talking.

Unfortunately, the show went quickly downhill for me. It became abundantly clear that this is someone still just aimlessly wasting everyone's time again in exchange for a bit of cash.

It's the equivalent of Roy Chubby Brown for people with elbow patches on their tweed jackets, a manor in Knightsbridge, and a contempt for the "uneducated".

This show is a man who should be filling a tent with used condoms and writing the names of his ex lovers in shit on a wall or something metaphorically spitting in your face and telling you you're stupid for not enjoying it.
Bravo sir. A true artiste!”
An Anonymous (Coward)

&#38;nbsp;“Much ink has been spilled about the existence and quality of Nate's hat. That the hat is excellent, we can all agree on.
 In the performance I was in, however, the room was divided between people who loved the show, myself included, and people who were completely baffled. Nate addressed this by suggesting that some people may have been lured in by the 5 star reviews without knowing much about the show. I suspect he was right.
Nate mixes well constructed jokes with absurd elements and some truly artful moments. It was incredibly original and creative, and there was something compelling about it all that's just hard to put a finger on.

I'm really excited to see more of Nate.”Stephen Ardee

“Hilarious weird refreshing comedy. 
Going to go far - must see show of the fringe!“
Anonymous (Audience Member)&#38;nbsp;

“Through sheer force of will &#38;amp; Conviction Nate Kitch has turned himself into an actual cult”Alexander Bennett

“One of the funniest, most abstract performances I’ve seen”

Oliver at Chops Comedy Bristol

“This is a difficult show to review. It is obviously a case of emperor's new clothes - but I guess that is the point. When a show is designed to flip everything on its head you have to ask whether you should pay to attend or whether Nate should pay the audience. Clearly masterful PR as everyone is talking about it. Beware - it is difficult to walk out as the seats are so closely packed together.”

People’s Comedy Bristol

“by far the best person I’ve seen during red raw, really respect the work you’ve clearly put into your shit...amazing to watch...I think about it constantly.” A bloke at The Stand - Edinburgh 2019“None traditional standup in the best way possible. The superbly written jokes at a breakneck pace left me reeling on laughter and begging for more. Alongside this is the best non-tradition audience interaction I’ve seen in a long time. One of the best shows I saw at fringe, and I couldn’t recommend him enough!!”(Does anyone have an extension lead?)Harrison Richards
 
“it’s the Bag-Man..I tell everyone about the Bag-Man!!”
Abby Wambaugh“Nate has the biggest comedy balls I have ever seen. This anarchic hour is not for everybody - clearly he is trying to take things in a different direction and is not shy of deconstructing his set live on stage.But if you are up for a decidedly unsafe comedy adventure, Nate's your man.”Iain Row

“Not sure where this show can go after fringe, as it is too avant garde/strange for any commercial type success, but he has some good moments. Not stand up.”
Silon Marks&#38;nbsp;

“Nate was my highlight of the night, a real comedians' comedian. He splits a room and leans into that with such skill that makes it a real feature of the act. His structure and delivery is just immaculate. It was the perfect position in the night for his material. His absurdist deconstruction of comedy is something to be admired.”
Dave Shakespeare

“we turned to each other and were like: this is exactly our kind of comedy”
Two Punters Conversing at Dead Leg Comedy Oxford

“Not your traditional stand-up comedian telling a list of jokes, but clever, well thought out comedy, right from the off. A really unexpected gem! Smart audience interaction too. Definitely recommended. Go and see“
Keeley“commitment to pushing his ideas to unexpected outcomes.”
Phil Jarvis

“beautiful brilliant chaos!”
A woman outside Monkey Barrel after ACMS - Edinburgh

“Thank you for making me laugh so hard I felt a bit sick. You were fucking brilliant!”
Ben in Brum

“I’d say 25% of the room are struggling to breathe from ‘creasing’, myself included.”
Elliot (repeat viewer) - Banbury Apothecary Tap
“If Stewart Lee isn’t suing, you’re lucky. Sad plagiarism.”
@SMBUAE

“he started off like Bill Hicks but then he went mad, and that’s my sort of thing really.”
 A regular at Swindon Old Town Comedy Club

“Like a 30-year-old-Ben-Elton.”

Nina - Weston-Super-Mare

“The David Lynch of Comedy”
Alex Green

“I didn't laugh at this show. I didn't need to, for Nate laughed at his own 'jokes', which was incredibly annoying. If he had played it straight then I'd have been impressed. Overrated in my view. I know alternative and boundary pushing comedy and this isn't it.”
 Anonymous online (coward)

“definitely weird but definitely worth it”
Viewer at Queens Park Arts Centre - Aylesbury

“you are a genius”
Ash - Mates Rates Comedy

“too deep for us”
Another punter - Mates Rates Comedy

An other punter (at the same gig)

† in 2020 Nate Kitch (me) was entered into the SYTYF Competition which, due to the Global Pandemic of Covid-19, was delayed to 2021 with heats being performed over “zoom” and the finals‡ being held in a covid-ly dispersed audience in Edinburgh (the capital of August) as part of the Edinburgh Fringe 2021 (held in August &#38;amp; Scotland respectively). During the belated process we were invited to submit a video of a “live” set from pre-pandemic times of which to receive feedback from a panel of 27 industry experts - the previous quote (affixed to this footnote) is taken from the feedback of 2 of those 27 aformentioned experts, which, as I assume you gather from the quote attribution, was delivered anonymously. &#38;nbsp;

Nate Kitch: Everyone’s Favourite Oddball by Entertainment Now&#38;nbsp; August 2, 2025 

He’s been called anti-comedy, indefinable and ‘a cult’ – but what does Nate Kitch think he’s doing? Entertainment Now asked him to answer some pertinent questions.

Tell us about your show. Why should we go and see it?

It’s absurdly hilarious about the charltan &#38;amp;/or genius of Rasputin (sort of) plus other things. I think like any organic process it’s diﬀerent everday, I’m aiming for the same bits (&#38;amp; beats) but you gotta throw caution to the wind. One show last year we ended before the “finale” we’d had too much fun laughing at nothing, and that’s something. It’s all a loop.

What is your favourite thing about your show?

Probably my hat. you’ll have to come to the show to see the hat bit but it’s my favourite bit. That’s what it all is isn’t it, bits &#38;amp; beats &#38;amp; hats &#38;amp; masks.

Do you have a Fringe idol?

Samuel J. Dutton

What three words best describe your performance style – and why?

Oﬀ-Beat, machiavellian?, Stupid, I don’t know why; you’ve got to just follow your instincts I suppose, do what feels natural to you and keep the audience on their toes, which is tricky ‘cos, as we know, they are in most cases, sat down.

Who are you looking forward to seeing in Edinburgh? 

Phil Jarvis he’s one of a kind but since he’s not here: Caitriona Dowden, Mark Dean Quinn aka “The Cheese Man”, Jain Edwards, Ali Brice, Yogie Belle, Mayor &#38;amp; His Daughter, The Duncan Brothers (minus one Duncan Brother), Consignia, Munnery, Christie, Kearns, Key, Kitson. etc..

What do you hope to achieve in Edinburgh – what are your hopes and dreams?

Just get more eyeballs on whatever I’m doing &#38;amp; bigger sounds out of those god-forsaken mouths. Just keep playing, building both the show I love &#38;amp; as Chortle said: “the Cult.” Essentially you gotta have fun with it.

What are the biggest obstacles you face as a performer at the Fringe?

Fire alarms, I did 30 mins in the streets last year (and others in the hallway) but mainly money; everything is expensive now and for everyone. The arts are dying, everything is a product, it used to be a dream now it comes with fries. I appreciate anyone who can buy a ticket and take a punt, I can’t always be what you want me to be but we can build it together (on my terms.)

What do you hope the audience will take away after an hour in your company?

Something, anything; I think the worst thing a show can feel after was, ‘good’, what is good? Bread is good. Art confounds or challenges you. The best compliment I get is people coming to the shows more than once: some cos they love it, some cos they don’t believe it &#38;amp; some cos they hated it, then in retropspect the penny drops and they wanna ride the mule again.

How do you plan to relax and recharge when not on stage?

You gotta take it easy in show business. My advice is to avoid all paparazzi and fans, keep staring at the floor whenever you are not on stage and at the soonest possible moment, adopt and maintain a horizontal position. Rotate twice, maybe.

What is your idea of a perfect Fringe day?

I wake up, absolutely flawless bowel movement, show is triple sold out and punters are already laughing at the mere concept of going to see me, I have the gig of my life, I walk oﬀ stage to find out I am in the T***graph’s top 278 Jokes of the fringe. I see some other great shows, a few pints, a fat mozzarella stick &#38;amp; then I got oﬀ the bus, so yeah.

Nate Kitch: Something Different!!!, 17.00, Gilded Balloon, July 30 – August 25


untitled_3for The Sunday Dreadful Issue #24 - 13th August 2023


co-written with the comedically imacculate yet culinarily inept Caitriona Dowden

We need to submit our piece for Benjamin and the comedy newsletter The Sunday Dreadful&#38;nbsp;- things we have seen at the fringe (non-comedy), what about:


We begin sat in a park in the centre of Edinburgh (Scottish Capital), me (Nate Kitch; the comic alongside Caitriona Dowden (award-winning comic and semi-catholic person) except we are not, I am in the pub and Caitriona is in the flat (where we reside) who will now continue for up to a maximum of 500 words.


Caitriona Dowden (me) am, as Nate Kitch; the comic (him) mentioned, currently in the flat, contemplating non-comedy things I’ve seen at the Fringe so far. I actually was in the park earlier -specifically St. Patrick’s Square - and while I was there I saw some cigarettes on the ground. On the way home I saw several things, including but not limited to, cars, a lemon on a doorstep, and the error of my ways (I forgot to buy milk). I arrived home to see a message from Nate alerting me to the fact that I was writing this article, which he will now be continuing.


I also saw the cigarettes but not the milk which was not purchased. I was both involved and an audience of both Glang show and FootFace (a drag horror show at Banshee Labyrinth 8.35pm) but both in and of themselves shows.


I also saw - a twig, a man, a boy, a man, a hand (mine) and also some feet all marching as part of a very fast moving flow of people along the pedestrianised walkways of this town. It was like a mass of fish, cascading on the ground , like river, probably. What does Caitriona make of this? Seen anything watchable with your eyes? (Handing back to Caitriona now from a milkshake and burrito place which temperature matches it’s choice of music (unacceptable.)) 


I (Caitriona Dowden) am questioning Nate Kitch’s above reference to the burrito place’s choice of music. Whilst I (also being in the burrito place) do concur, I was under the impression that the topic of this article was to be non-comedy things we have seen rather than non-comedy things we have heard. Prior to sharing in Nate Kitch’s acoustic displeasure, I saw an absurdist play called ‘Ginzel’s Little Córdoba’ and on my way out of the venue I saw a proliferation of people, buses, and rain, amongst them the comic Nate Kitch, which led to our present convergence in the Burrito Place. Currently I can see with my eyes and sense with my intuition that Nate Kitch (; the comic) is bored of waiting for me to finish writing, so I will hand back narrative control. 


Thank you for that whilst I was aware of the delay I was also aware of your thorough editing and composing in comparison with the immediacy of my stream of consciousness writing as it pours out of me in it’s blackness and glory like the many Guinnesses I have also seen, consumed and succumbed to. Guinness after Guinness after Guinness after Guinness &#38;amp; Chess and Fags and Chess &#38;amp; tick full of tock full of all these things.


Thinking about tocks, maybe it’s time to end this piece, but unlike this paragraph the festival is far from over, go and see many things, out from the centre, the absurd the unsettling, be free and see the free then donate generously with time coin and hearsay.


Agreed Caitriona? Indeed, this is an appropriate place to conclude, as I see it. 


Be seeing you.





Shorten Betterfor The Sunday Dreadful Issue #21 - 9th July 2023

Growing up in an egg we didn’t have much comedy on TV but when something did reach us, it was amazing. One day, my dad was watching TV and Jim Davidson was on, he called me to the living room and we watched it together and just laughed our asses off. He was making a bloke quiver. I didn’t understand it at all, but it felt brilliant. Even before I knew what brilliant meant.

From that moment on I knew I wanted to do comedy and it be nothing, no context, no deeper meaning and most importantly almost no length. What is the point of something long and nothing with pointless tethers of repeated ideas that serves no purpose only to exist in and of themselves? After years and years finally the wind is blowing in the right direction. Not only is the form of stand- up going that way but even how we ingest it has found it’s natural home. I’m talking about instagram and tick-tock.

I adore these platform as they have created the new and quite simply, only way to consume the art form. Sure you can lose that “tension in the room” some talk about but can it ever be compared with the tension and release of human faeces falling from your human ass as you scroll through comedians discussing where they are from, what they look like or calling someone a “cunt” or a “Karen”. And don’t get me wrong, I love the bits*, I just wish they could be shorter.. and the jokes too. if you know what I mean.

We as comedians need to go shorter and we need to go harder, like a vice grip on the throat of your own material ; don’t kill your darlings suffocate them and then shake them like a tiny wooden mannequin used to study postures.

And with that I have consolidated my best bits into simple vowels. I always open with “A”, (it’s a nice throwback to the alphabet), and always end on a vowel, usually “O”, They never teach you that but don’t end on a consonant like “K” it just isn’t as good, end on a vowel like an “O” or an “A”. Sometimes in the big clubs I’ll go “A”, “I”, “T”, “H”, “J”, “Z” then “I”’ll call back to the A , - “A” then drop in another vowel “I” or maybe even a “U” or a little “E, I, E, I, O” completely negating the “A” &#38;amp; “U”.

It’s early days and so far has never worked but perhaps it will grow into some farmyard utopian community of ideas, where everyone follows each other and likes the fuck out of everything with the like button. Like a farm where all the animals live side by side and have food.

Perhaps, perhaps. But at the moment I’m reminded of that old Jim Davidson line I saw back in that old egg when I was young at the beginning of the piece:

“shorten, shorten again, shorten better.”

*I’m talking about shit here.&#38;nbsp;

What I have done;


Over the past few days and hours I have realised the magnitude of what I have been doing in my life and how when I really think about my actions, 
it is simply not right.


Last night I threw my gun away into the bin,
 the time for shooting has stopped.


I walked away and that was that.


Killing bins is neither funny, clever nor morally correct. I know that now.


But then I change my mind immediately and went inside the bin and hid in the darkness, sitting in all the rubbish,
 then I used my hands to find the gun. I went outside the bin (with the now found gun) and turned around and then shot the bin. 


That’s right I did not find redemption,
 I found another bin and it found another bullet in it,
 because I shot it.


Bang Bang; this is my life now.
(This is from a time when I was shooting bins)

Bath Man


There was a little man in the Bath, he stared up at me from beneath the water. I thought I recognised him but was almost certain I’d never seen him before.
 I couldn’t deny the lingering feeling of knowing; it all felt like an echo from a former life.


I drowned him.

Give the Dog a Bone

I went to give a dog a bone the other day, 
but I accidentally gave it a cat.
 Not to worry though,
 it soon savagely attacked the cat, tearing the feline body apart in a catastrophic bloodbath. When he had killed the cat and eaten all it’s flesh, the dog ended up with loads of bones.
