Fringe Review at The Voodoo Rooms

The home of more variety than ever this year, the Voodoo rooms is the home of cabaret at the Edinburgh Fringe but there's more on offer this year.

Fringe Review, 1st August 2014

Lindsay Sharman is a greater writer than Shakespeare

Comedy stage performer Lindsay Sharman is a greater writer than William Shakespeare. I do not actually think that.

Edinburgh Fringe preview: Lindsay Sharman

I'm tentatively obsessed with relative newcomer Lindsay Sharman. I first saw her in the final of the Piccadilly Comedy Cub New Comedian of the Year final in 2013.

Edinburgh Fringe 2014 interview: Lindsay Sharman

We shared the stage with Lindsay Sharman in the live stage version of Hook just before Christmas 2012. She was an adept pirate then, but now she's transformed herself into Madame Magenta - a psychic, medium, white wytch and celebrated author.

More details

Fans of the esoteric may now rejoice, as the extraordinarily glamourous turbaned psychic, Madame Magenta brings her powerful voodoo powers to The Voodoo Rooms in her Edinburgh Fringe debut, Libros Mystica.

Do you want one last chat with your dear, dead granny? Are you profoundly lonely? Do you smell? Psychic, medium, whyte wytch and celebrated author Madame Magenta can help you!

More magic than psychic Sally and with no affiliation to the devil - Madame Magenta really is the fortune teller you can trust! So welcome to you all, the sad and the lonely, the tragic and misguided... you have found a friend in Magenta. Come in, laugh, cry and share in songs and tales from the life of the Mistress of Mysteriousness as she offers the best spiritual advice available to the enlightened, before inevitably having one too many tequilas and shamelessly plugging her new book and mystical wares.

Magenta is the brand new book from everyone's favourite psychic which reveals, once and for all, the shameless secrets of a sometime swindler just trying to make ends meet in a world full of unhelpful spirits and fraudulent mediums (who give everyone a bad name). Available to buy after the show.

Madame Magenta & her psychic services are investigational & for the purpose of entertainment. As they are not recognised scientifically, there are no guaranteed or certain results.

Madame Magenta is the creation of character comedian and New Act of the Year finalist 2013, Lindsay Sharman who makes her Edinburgh Fringe debut in Libros Mystica. This boisterously satirical examination of the exploitative nature of mediums and consumerism hilariously highlights the lies, illusions and manipulation that govern our daily lives. As well as performing as Madame Magenta on the London cabaret and comedy circuits, Lindsay comperes Pull the Other One and performs as The Poet.
