Olver: Portrait of a Serial Killer
Mark Olver returns to Edinburgh with a new show. Sort of stand-up, sort of theatre, and all kinds of scary. Actual violence guaranteed. Three previous Edinburgh shows, support act for Russell Howard's national tour, and warm-up for shows like 8 Out of 10 Cats and 10 O'Clock Live. This is his story. **** (Scotsman), **** (Chortle.co.uk), **** (Fest), **** (ThreeWeeks). Best New Show, Leicester Comedy Festival 2011.
