2016 Edinburgh Fringe
Bourgeois & Maurice: How to Save the World Without Really Trying
Riotous original songs meet hyper surreal, high fashion in this political rally slash arena spectacular, performed in a damp cave, by a pair of absolute weirdos with a dubious moral compass. Critically acclaimed musical satirists Bourgeois & Maurice present a provocative, thought-provoking and cuttingly hilarious guide to engaging with the complex issues of today's geo-political climate... without too much effort on anyone's part. 'It's hard to think of any other act delivering such clever, funny and sharp material' **** (Time Out).

British Comedy Guide, 5th September 2016Fings from the Fringe
Well, who doesn't love an alliterative title? And titles, when it comes to Edinburgh Fringe, can make or break you. Likewise your publicity image. Does it draw people in? What kind of people? And does it accurately represent what you do? Some of the biggest disappointments aren't because a show is bad, but because it's not what it promised.
