From Banff in Scotland, Garth Cruickshank, winner of the Perrier Best Newcomer award 2001, currently resides in London. He has gained critical acclaim in various shows and is now working towards a 10th anniversary performance at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2011. Having lived in Edinburgh for 15 years, his knowledge of the city lead to an opportunity to work with Tony Black. Despite having never met, Garth and Tony were brought together by a mutual acquaintance, Andrew Midgley, Garther's former manager and one of Tony's colleagues at The Scotsman.
