August 23, 2018 | one4review
Robert Khan and Tom Salinsky’s delightfully funny, yet slightly scary political play Brexit is set in 2020, when new Prime Minister Adam Masters, Timothy Bentinck, has the tough job of moving the exit forward whilst balancing the party wings to … Read More
Alistair Williams:- Great White Male 4****
August 23, 2018 | one4review
It is true that Alistair Williams falls into the demographic of a privileged white male comedian, but is it his fault? He is trying to forge a career doing something he loves, having given up a far more lucrative job … Read More

Like a Sturgeon – PBJ Management – 4****
August 23, 2018 | one4review
Drag artist Ripley provides a political drama with a fabulous performance of lip-synced comedy, drag, politics and pop music. Ripley cleverly adapts lyrics to well known songs that fit in with the political news stories that are shown on a … Read More

Linda:- Freya Slipper / Keepers Comedy 3***
August 22, 2018 | one4review
This show is listed in the comedy section of the Fringe program, and whilst it is amusing, I’m not quite sure it is its best home. It teeters along the tightrope of character comedy, sketch, or even a theatrical piece … Read More
Rory O’Hanlon:- Comedy Hour 4****
August 22, 2018 | one4review
There it is in a nutshell. Rory O’Hanlon and an hour of comedy. There can’t be many Fringe show titles that sum up what is going to happen as succinctly as this can there? But what it doesn’t tell you, … Read More
