Girl and Dean

August 8, 2008 |

Girl and Dean are a bright and breezy female double act. In many of the sketches Dean takes on the straight role as the well spoken, irrepressible, Women’s Institute type character. Girl has the freer role, more ad libs … Read More

Jarlath Regan – Relax The Cax

August 8, 2008 |

I have seen snippets of Jarlath Regan before and was able to find some time to see his full show. Certainly not as manic as many of his countrymen his humour is more laid back. If it had not … Read More

Karen Dunbar

Scotland’s own Queen of Comedy, that is if you don’t count Craig Hill, Karen Dunbar is back at the Fringe with her one woman show and is playing to packed out houses in the large Gilded Balloon Debating Hall. … Read More

Markus Birdman:- Sympathy for the Devil

August 8, 2008 |

It’s hard to know where to begin with Scott Capurro.  Perhaps it’s best to kick off with a warning:  if you are easily offended then this is definitely NOT the show for you.  Capurro knows no boundaries.  Or rather, … Read More

Tim Minchin  –  Ready For This

August 8, 2008 |

Tim Minchin obviously has quite the following.  His show at the cavernous Pleasance Grand was a complete sell out on the evening I attended.  By contrast this was my first experience of the man, but I found it such … Read More

Amused Moose Laugh Off Final

There are not many Fringe shows that have a running time of two hours thirty. There are not many shows that feature a round dozen stand-ups either, but this did. Following a series of events around Britain and Ireland … Read More

Carey Marx – Careyness 

August 8, 2008 |

I received a recommendation from Phil Nicol to see this show but I had already pre-booked to see Carey Marx, Geoff is a fan but Carey fitted into my schedule so I win! Carey has a fascination with words … Read More
