★★★★★Tom Read Wilson has long been a familiar face on Celebs Go Dating (E4), but seeing him live reveals just how much more there is behind the polished charm and impeccable diction. His Fringe show, The A to Z of Me, is a full display of his multi‑talented personality — and he wastes no time proving it. The hour is packed with tap dancing, Shakespearean sonnets, poems, songs, and even a few well‑timed jokes. It’s a variety platter delivered with such ease that the audience can’t help but be swept along.
The conceit of the show — using an A to Z of words to define himself — is clever, playful, and surprisingly revealing. Each letter becomes a doorway into a different facet of his personality, from the theatrical to the tender. The alphabet is the perfect prism through which to learn about his logophil It’s a neat idea, but what makes it work is his delivery: warm, articulate, and just a little mischievous.
What stands out most is how effortlessly he charms the room. There’s a sense of genuine connection — not just performance — as he moves from one skill to the next. One moment he’s tapping away with crisp precision, the next he’s reciting Shakespeare with a flourish, then suddenly he’s singing with a sincerity that hushes the room. It’s eclectic, but never chaotic; everything feels stitched together by his unmistakable personality.
If you’re looking for a show that packs a punch — something lively, polished, and full of surprises — The A to Z of Me is well worth your time. Being entertained by Tom Read Wilson is simply delightful, and this hour proves he’s far more than the persona you’ve seen on television.
