Baby Wants Candy – 5*****
August 7, 2024 | one4review
There are a lot of Fringe staples that don’t live up to the hype for newcomers, and I’ve found this to be the case a few times, especially in the case of Improv shows. I was beginning to think that … Read More
Showstopper! The improvised musical 5*****
August 7, 2024 | one4review
This is the 15th year of Showstoppers! at the Fringe. On previous years we have not seen this as my 12 year old reviewer is not keen on musicals. This year however we thought we’d give it a try and … Read More
Dr Jo Prendergast: Cool Mum 4****
August 7, 2024 | one4review
Finding shows for tweens and teens can be tricky. This is the first comedy show I’ve been able to bring my twelve year along to and she loved it. Dr Jo is a New Zealand based psychiatrist. She is the … Read More
Chelsea Birkby: This Is Life, Cheeky Cheeky 3.5***
August 7, 2024 | one4review
Chelsea Birkby is so warm and charming, that it is unfortunate that her show feels less like comedy than a lecture from a enthusiastic but bemused newly qualified academic. She is positive and endearing, but her show seems to not … Read More
Jack Skipper : Skint 4.5****
August 7, 2024 | one4review
Jack Skipper is a former carpet fitter from South London turned full time comedian. He references the title of his show. It seems that his new found success and fame has not yet quite transferred into material wealth. But with … Read More
Josh Glanc- Family Man 4.5****
August 7, 2024 | one4review
Josh Glanc is an Australian comedian who moved to London from Melbourne to chase his ambition of working in the showbiz industry and I for one am glad he did. Josh enters the auditorium wearing unusual attire that instantly gets … Read More
Bella Humphries: Square Peg 3***
August 7, 2024 | one4review
This was a show of two parts, though Bella Humphries’ massive smile and hugely expressive face is ever present. The initial part of the show, the sort of getting to know you bit, delivered solid observational stand up material. Solid … Read More
Isabelle Farah: Nebuchadnezzar 3.5***
August 7, 2024 | one4review
This show has a refreshingly original framing; ostensibly it’s an examination of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon – the one who built the hanging gardens. Just under the surface it’s also got topical satire and modern social commentary. It’s a bit … Read More
Alexis Gay: Unprofessional 3***
August 7, 2024 | one4review
Alexis Gay is a great presenter, and she probably would have been a good manager and quite successful in the corporate world, if it hadn’t been soul-destroying. It’s good for lots of reasons that she’s not still in that world, … Read More
Emma Holland 4****
August 7, 2024 | one4review
I received an extra content warning email a bit before the show, and while some of Emma Holland’s material did poke at the limits of what some might find funny in a spirit of fun and subversion, it’s nothing like … Read More
