2016 Edinburgh Fringe
Eric Lampaert: Alien of Extraordinary Ability
This Franco-British nomad with an American green card knows no borders: both with his neurotic oft-taboo approach to comedy, and literally, by sporadically gigging all over the world in various languages. He belongs nowhere. He is an alien. Maybe it's time for him to leave this planet. 'Provides a constant frisson of energy with sparky, thoughts about international traits, learning foreign languages and even touching on mental illness with his loose, animated style.' **** (Chortle.co.uk). 'Delightfully weird' **** (Time Out). 'Definitely one to catch' **** (Daily Express). **** (ThreeWeeks). **** (Skinny).
