Part improv, part drug-ridden anecdotes Greg Proops is back on the Fringe for his 39th award-seeking year. Each show is different as Greg cannot remember his act from night to night. Mr. Proops played in a tent last year. He is grateful to be back in a real building and promises mirth and bitterness. 'There are two kinds of people in the world: people who get Proops and people who don't. Evolution is in motion. Choose the winning side.' (Random Internet Comment).

The Telegraph, 19th August 2013Edinburgh Fringe 2013 interview: Greg Proops
After seeing Greg's stand up last year and being in attendance at two of his Podcast recordings I think I reconnected with comedy in a whole new way. Breathtakingly funny his shows had the charm and wit of a real comedy pro - and his podcasts have to be listened to really appreciate what he does!

An amazing improvisation, comedian, makes a welcome return to the Fringe Festival. From seeing this man on "Whose Line" when I was a child; to see him in action with a microphone was totally worth every penny. Proops pulls out all the punches in this brilliant hour of intelligence, clever, and above all, blunt stand-up show. He takes no prisoners and shows no mercy when he tackles his topics, which include being a pizza boy, the American Justice system, and the president of America.
Any fans of clever, direct, honest comedy should see this man in action. I would go so far as to say that he could become the next "Bill Hicks"
