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
Juliette Burton: Hopepunk 3.5***
August 7, 2024 | one4review
Juliette Burton achieves what she sets out to do and sends the audience out the door on the whole more uplifted than when they came in. Some came in quite enthused already, but Ms Burton has verve and energy and … Read More
Pete Heat- Bogus 4****
August 6, 2024 | one4review
Pete Heat is a tall comedy magician with a unique style of his own, literally! My perception of a magician has always been a clean-cut, well-dressed individual wearing a white shirt, black jacket and hat, but that’s not Pete! His … Read More
Rosco McClelland – Sudden Death 5*****
August 6, 2024 | one4review
Rosco McClelland is a Scottish comedian who has been gathering quite a profile both here and further afield over the decade or so he has been performing. I have seen most of his previous Edinburgh shows and have always enjoyed … Read More
Sarah Keyworth – My Eyes are Up here 4 ½ ****
August 6, 2024 | one4review
I have only ever seen Sarah Keyworth on TV before, but such is their reputation and the little one can glean from telly I, along with many, many others packed into a cellar in the old town to witness the … Read More
Adam Hills: Shoes Half Full 5*****
August 6, 2024 | one4review
Adam Hills has earned his stripes on the Fringe for over 20 years, being nominated for the Perrier (now Edinburgh Comedy Awards) with Go You Big Red Fire Engine and Happy Feet. After four years away he is still a … Read More
Olga Koch Comes from Money 4.5****
August 6, 2024 | one4review
From the initial ‘rock-star’ entrance, hitting the stage dressed in a power suit Olga Koch hits the ground running. A little audience interaction and she is off, explaining wealth and how it is obtained, be it from Russian oligarch, working … Read More
Alice Snedden : Highly Credible 4.5****
August 6, 2024 | one4review
It takes a hell of a lot of confidence to be a stand up comedian and Alice does reference this extraordinary confidence. It got her through the very tough, some might say savage, environment of an all girls school. And … Read More
