2015 Edinburgh Fringe
Puddles Pity Party
With more than 100k fans worldwide on Facebook and over 20 million views on YouTube, the unique and critically lauded Puddles Pity Party is a must-see for the music and comedic talents of one of the world's most famous clowns. Star of the Olivier Award-winning production of 'La Soiree', Puddles continues to trot the globe, singing his sad anthems for all the party people and finally bringing his comedy cabaret to Edinburgh! 'Without a single spoken word Puddles can muster more audience chemistry than most ... it is an enthralling performance.' ****1/2 (Advertiser, Adelaide).

So far so good with the shows that I have seen. It has been varied.
Paul Sinha, 19th August 2015Cabaret in Edinburgh is going from strength to strength
A welcome addition to the Edinburgh Fringe has been the continued growth of cabaret, so much so that it has, for the past few years, had its own section in the Edinburgh Fringe brochure. A valuable art form, it is frequently neglected, rarely getting the proper acknowledgement it deserves.
