Sunday, August 21st, 2005

With the finest improvisation game that I’ve seen from any Fringe show this year (or in other years) this comedy sketch show is well worth staying up for it’s almost midnight curtain up time.

Given that he’s also got the biggest poster budget, and the largest poster in Edinburgh, perhpas that’s not surprising.
