Tom Henry, Jack Hester: Tom and Jack Having the Craic 2.5**
August 10, 2022 | one4reviewI kinda thought that this show was going to be a double act with Tom & Jack, however what we get is a show split in 2 with the boys plying their trade separately. It’s a cracking venue they share … Read More
Michelle Brasier: Average Bear 5*****
August 10, 2022 | one4reviewThis vibrant and emotional show got the standing ovation it certainly deserved. Almost the whole audience waited around at the end to tell Ms Brasier how much they liked the show. It’s getting five stars in this review, and if … Read More
Harriet Dyer: Trigger Warning 5*****
August 10, 2022 | one4reviewHarriet Dyer talks and it’s delightful, and she also talks with her hands, and that is wonderful. They do something almost like sign language: story elements’ positions in space are described in relation to each other, or a person acquires … Read More
Tony Law: A Now Begin In Again 4****

August 10, 2022 | one4reviewThis show starts at a solid ‘good’ and improves immediately from there to achieve ‘excellent’ about half way through. Material and presentation aside, this is almost entirely due to Ms Coates’ skill in grabbing the audience by the emotions and … Read More
Sarah Southern: Scandalous 3***

General Secretary 3***
August 10, 2022 | one4reviewComedy duo Thick’n’Fast have loads of good and interesting and funny ideas swirling around, but they haven’t, in this show at least, managed to make them coalesce and mature into sustained and substantial comedy. That said, there’s something about the … Read More
Paul McCaffrey – We go again 4****
August 9, 2022 | one4reviewI asked a couple of people sat beside me why they had bought tickets to see Paul McCaffrey at the Fringe. One had a seen him at a gig down south and really enjoyed him, the others were here on … Read More
Lucy Porter: Wake Up Call 4.5****
August 9, 2022 | one4reviewI must admit I’m a bit of a fan when it comes to Lucy Porter and she never fails to deliver a good show at the Fringe. This year is no exception. She performs in a beautifully air conditioned venue … Read More
