Who is David Elms?
David Elms is a long-practised improviser best known for his touring solo show, David Elms Describes a Room. It sits halfway between improv and storytelling: night after night, Elms and the people in the seats conjure up a room between them, detail by detail, and every room is new. The show has had sold-out Edinburgh Fringe runs and a residency at Soho Theatre in London, and it earned a Chortle Award nomination in 2026. Its tour includes a return to Glasgow for the city's International Comedy Festival. [1][2]
