Edinburgh Fringe review: Lucy Beaumont, We Can Twerk It Out
Lucy Beaumont’s on stage persona is a perfectly studied parody of a slightly airheaded Hull woman. At least, we assume it’s a parody. If she’s really as airheaded and easily confused as her persona suggests it would fairly hard to get to this stage…or any stage, for that matter.
Edinburgh Fringe review: Carl Hutchinson, Here’s Me Show
Carl Hutchinson doesn’t tend to get on well with people, a trait he’s exploited in the past to good comic effect. Last year’s show All The Rage detailed his various run ins with members of the public, including those evil people who insist on fully reclining their airline seats.
Edinburgh Fringe review: Katie Mulgrew, Happily Ever After
If the title of Katie Mulgrew’s show didn’t give you enough of a clue as to its theme, she underlines it by bounding onto stage with dyed, bright red hair, a Little Mermaid t-shirt, green leggings and a tiara. If you don’t like Disney films, it might be a good idea to run away now.
Edinburgh Fringe review: Tony Law, Enter The Tonezone
The fact that Tony Law – cultivator of the ridiculous, master of the non-sequitur – has admitted things have gone off the boil a bit, should go some way to describing how bizarre and shambolic his set at The Stand tonight really is.
Edinburgh Fringe review: Jo Caulfield, Cancel My Subscription
With biting wit and a razor-sharp tongue, Jo Caulfield’s snarky humour and brash honesty make her a delight to watch.
Edinburgh Fringe review: Hilarity Bites Comedy Club Showcase
Here’s good value. A free one-hour show featuring a selection of comedians, top names among them, currently appearing on the Edinburgh Fringe.
Edinburgh Fringe review: Tommy Rowson, Down And Out In Powys And London
It’s hard to pin down the source of Tommy Rowson’s appeal. Is it the fact that the wry, tattooed comic is a loveable rogue, or the fact he looks a bit like a younger, slightly better looking version of fellow Welshman Rhys Ifans?
Edinburgh Fringe review: Marcel Lucont Is
The most sophisticated man at the Fringe, Marcel Lucont, brings his effortless, peerless and genius talents to the King Dome.
