2015 Edinburgh Fringe
James Campbell's Comedy 4 Kids
Stories old and new for anyone over six who enjoys stand-up comedy without rude words from the man who invented the genre. 'James Campbell pioneered the idea of stand-up for children, and it is still genuinely impressive to watch him hold the attention of a theatre full of six to 11-year-olds for an hour with nothing but a microphone' (Stephanie Merritt, Guardian). 'A charming introduction to Fringe comedy for any child, a hit not to be missed' ***** (ThreeWeeks). 'Funny and amazing' (Anna aged 9, PrimaryTimes.net).
