A review of Tim Vine: Breeeep!, Fringe 2022

August 11, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A masterful mashup of one-liners, slightly longer jokes and a surprising amount of songs. Tim Vine’s Breeeeep! is a comedy act you can take your teen to without cringing or escape from reality for a while.

I think it helps to have heard of The Carpenters to get the most from this gig, but you don’t have to be a super fan.

A review of Marcus Brigstocke: Absolute Shower, Fringe 2022

August 8, 2022 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Political and life comedy from a master of the art. Marcus Brigstocke tells it as it is, poking fun at the idiots who messed up the country.

Best of Edinburgh Showcase Show is well worth your time, and it’s on at a great time, ready to tee you up for the day with a refresher of why you love comedy, some belly laughs and acts to visit later.
