Edinburgh Fringe review: Kai Humphries, Stuff Protocol
There’s a genuinely interesting section in Kai Humphries’ show where we’re encouraged to shout of the names of rappers.
Edinburgh Fringe review: Axis Of Awesome, Vida Loca Las Vegas
Aussie musical trio Axis Of Awesome are full blown YouTube stars and they make no pretenses about where a good chunk of their audience is coming from – but their consistently excellent live shows have earned them a following away from the web.
Edinburgh Fringe review: Tom Deacon, Get Your Deac-on!
Tom Deacon, not long back from a presenting gig at the World Cup in Brazil, has pulled in a good crowd, in a good room in a good, centrally-located venue. It all sounds good: and good is exactly how it turned out.
Edinburgh Fringe review: Tom Allen, Life/Style
For the avoidance of doubt, the show is about Tom Allen. His life. His style. He’s a gay man. He’s a camp comedian. He’s hugely funny. Deal with it.
Edinburgh Fringe review: Ed Gamble, Gambletron 5000
Ed Gamble is a very funny man, something that becomes obvious about five minutes into his extremely lively show when a girl sitting on a tall bench at the back of the venue laughs so hard at one of his jokes that she actually falls off her seat. Now that’s comedy.
Edinburgh Fringe review: I Killed Rasputin
Like legendary Russian mystic Grigori Rasputin, Richard Herring’s sixth foray into theatre is an enigmatic beast.
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.
