Jenny Collier: A Few Good Jen 3***
August 10, 2018 | one4reviewSome of this show was quite scatological, which didn’t quite match up with most of the audience, who were probably expecting comedy to match how Jen looks, which is innocuous and safe. This is a shame because Jen has an … Read More
Phil Nichol :- Your Wronger (WIP) 4****
August 10, 2018 | one4review
Having just finished a 9 month run in London’s West End in the much acclaimed musical Everyone’s Talking About Jamie and with his own national tour coming up, Phil Nichol would have been expected to maybe have a rest … Read More
Lou Sanders: Shame Pig 4****
August 10, 2018 | one4reviewLou Sanders discloses enough in this show that you feel her shame – and how much she now owns it – but after the show you realise she hasn’t said as much as it seemed, and there’s more story to … Read More
Ivo Graham – Motion Sickness 4****
August 9, 2018 | one4reviewIvo Graham is a very amiable and very funny young man. He plays on his poshness and his lack of experience of worldly matters, all making him very endearing to the packed crowd in the Pleasance Cabaret Bar. He has … Read More

Micky Overman is a Dutch comedian, albeit one that has spent a lot of time in Canada and has a bit of Irish in her. She’ll explain, and is doing her Edinburgh debut hour within the bowel of The … Read More
Alex Edelman :- Just for Us 5*****
August 9, 2018 | one4review
It’s been a couple of years since Alex Edelman graced the Fringe but he is back, Just for Us, in 2018 playing in the prestigious Pleasance Cabaret bar and packing it out nightly. And it is so easy to … Read More
Martha McBrier – Fur Coat Nae Knickers 3***
August 9, 2018 | one4reviewWarning: spoilers. There’s a point in this show where the tone utterly changes and you will not see it coming. And that is brilliant, because the show is story-telling about growing up in the west of Scotland in the 70s, … Read More
Sarah Keyworth: Dark Horse 4****
August 9, 2018 | one4reviewI’m not sure why I haven’t come across Ms Keyworth before; she’s very good. Her performance demonstrated a good grasp of the art of the pause, pacing, tone and rhythm; it isn’t a crowd-work type show but she worked well … Read More
