Nicky Wilkinson: Happy – 3***
August 24, 2018 | one4review
As the audience settle in, Nicky Wilkinson hands out sheets of stickers, and the crowd divide themselves into two teams – Movers and Shakers. She also makes it clear that the show is just about being – and making ourselves … 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
Mark Simmons:- Onelinerer 4****
August 22, 2018 | one4review
I suppose that it is not everyone that can say that they love a one liner, but judging the crowds attending Simmons gigs there are quite a lot and such fellow comics as Tim Vine, Gary Delaney, Stu Francis and … Read More
Leo Kearse: Right-Wing Comedian 4****
August 22, 2018 | one4review
My politics are generally left-leaning, so I went to this show expecting a bit of cognitive dissonance and having to suspend my distaste in order to give a fair review. Turns out I haven’t had to suspend it as much … Read More
The Freedom Machine 2**
August 22, 2018 | one4review
Elaine Gallagher presents two of her interests – cycling and the rise of enfranchisement for men and women in the last hundred years – in a lecture/stand up hybrid that doesn’t really work as either. The show starts with five … Read More
Bodily 4****
August 22, 2018 | one4review

Linda:- Freya Slipper / Keepers Comedy 3***
August 22, 2018 | one4review

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
Abigoliah Schamaun:- Do You Know Who I Think I Am?! 4****
August 22, 2018 | one4review
If you ran into Abiloliah Schamaun it would be fair to say that she would be hard not to notice. She has her own unique look, pink hair and tattoos are just part of it, but that isn’t all that … Read More
Fred Macauley in Conversation:- 4****
August 21, 2018 | one4review
There are a lot of similar shows as this on the Fringe each year and each I guess have their merits and the popularity with audiences cannot be doubted. But not everyone is hosted by Fred Macaulay. Macaulay has of … Read More
