2010 Edinburgh Fringe
Edinburgh Fringe features 2010
Asher Treleaven review
Thursday 19th August 2010
Asher Treleaven conveys his ideas through an innate gift for story-telling, and the odd talent of expressive 'dance'.
Daniel Kitson review
Thursday 19th August 2010
Daniel Kitson has created a show so enthralling that it is impossible to adequately sum up in words.
Jim Jefferies review
Thursday 19th August 2010
After a lengthy stint in the States, Jim Jefferies seems pretty bloody relieved to be back (drinking) on stage in Scotland.
Lady Garden review
Thursday 19th August 2010
Lady Garden have delivered some great ideas in their sketch show this year, but the laugh count is lower than it should be.
Nick Helm review
Thursday 19th August 2010
Nick Helm combines one-liners, poems, audience interaction and songs to create a brilliant hour of entertainment.
Sarah Campbell review
Thursday 19th August 2010
Sarah Campbell has been singled out as a newbie comedian to watch out for, and with good reason.
Terry Saunders review
Thursday 19th August 2010
Terry Saunders genius for storytelling shines brightly in his new show, Six And A Half Loves.
Tiernan Douieb review
Thursday 19th August 2010
This isn't the finished article but Douieb is a wonderful storyteller and clearly has the nous and nerve to negotiate the peaks and troughs of a proper hour.
Justin Moorhouse review
Wednesday 18th August 2010
Justin Moorhouse is a talented performer, and has a nice way of expressing himself, It's just that his material is trite.
Radio 4 Flashmob
Wednesday 18th August 2010
Radio 4 organised a comedy flashmob on the Royal Mile. Check out the video here...
Alex Horne review
Wednesday 18th August 2010
Alex Horne admits early on that there are only three actual jokes in the show, and, true, it is one of those Edinburgh efforts that more traditional comics moan about.
Chris Addison review
Tuesday 17th August 2010
The most important thing to say about Chris Addison's show is simply that it packs in a frankly astonishing number of laughs per minute.
Loretta Maine review
Tuesday 17th August 2010
Loretta Maine, the singer with the feel-bad factor, is back in Edinburgh to spread her jaded-fairy magic via the medium of music.
The Golden Lizard review
Tuesday 17th August 2010
With the aid of just one chair, a pair of clip-on spectacles, some Aviators and a visor, Mike Wozniak and Henry Paker play out the tale of Roy.
Greg Davies review
Monday 16th August 2010
Quite simply, this is one of the most joyous hours of stand-up I have seen in a very long time.
Helen Arney review
Monday 16th August 2010
Helen Arney sings beautifully. The only issue is, her songs aren't that funny.
Marcel Lucont review
Monday 16th August 2010
Lucont works his way through the material effortlessly. Quick witted and exceedingly sharp, his one-liners shouldn't be taken for granted.
Andrew Collins
Sunday 15th August 2010
Andrew Collins is an endearing performer, and although most of the audience are made up of Collings & Herrin fans, it wouldn't be hard for him to win over newcomers with this watchable and very funny show.
Carl Donnelly review
Sunday 15th August 2010
Carl Donnelly's stage presence and comfort in front of the audience, belies the fact that he is one of the fringes newer performers.
Jeremy Lion review
Sunday 15th August 2010
Jeremy Lion Goes Green is the perfect example of what character comedy is meant to be. Justin Edwards stays comfortably (some might say worryingly) within his capabilities as Lion.
