2012 Edinburgh Fringe
Tony Law Maximum Nonsense
A kind of comedy show about the meaning of life. Or not. Bloody award-winning! This year featuring cliché. Mrtonylaw is a way of doing comedy but is it proper? No. Award winning! Loads of stars! 'A gloriously virtuoso display of absurdism... Law is a master of the deconstructionist style of comedy' (Scotsman). Ludicrous. 'A stream of joyous nonsense ... as clever as it is loud, ridiculous and hilarious ... a gem' (Comedy.co.uk) and another! 'Clever and blithely zany...' (Telegraph). Big words, but I sense they are positive. Start your day with lawunch, geddit? Quality.

British Comedy Guide, 22nd August 2012Interview: Tony Law
Comedian Tony Law is a Fringe veteran, not to mention a Fringe favourite, and not just with us lot here at Three Weeks. If you haven't heard of him you a: must be pretty new to the Festival and b: need to get along to his show as soon as you can, no nonsense...
ThreeWeeks, 15th August 2012Tony Law gives Edinburgh (and STV) maximum noonsense
Well loved for his absurd whip-smart humour, you never know what to expect from the Canadian comedian - though straightforward answers appear to be pretty much out of the question...
STV, 7th August 2012More details
The unpredictable force of comedy that can only be known as Tony Law (or Mr Tony Law, to you) returns to The Stand at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with a brand new hour of the boundary pushing, surreal stand-up and edgy almost-yarn spinning that has earned him his place as one of the most revered comedians on the circuit.
Bloody award-winning! This year featuring cliché.
