2017 Edinburgh Fringe
Helen Duff: When the Going Gets Duff
'Master of shamelessly silly yet socially conscious clowning' (BroadwayBaby.com) Helen Duff returns with a 'bold, subversive and very funny' (Scotsman) show about life as a fully exposed idiot. Doughnuts may be shared in an effort to illustrate why basic demand and supply economics need a tantric overhaul. Amused Moose New Act Award Finalist, 2017. Soon to be seen alongside Will Ferrell and John C Reilly in the 2018 feature film Holmes and Watson. 'Absolutely shameless, boldly ridiculous, embarrassingly funny' **** (Australia Times). 'Quick witted and supremely empowered... a formidable comic' **** (Scotsman).

British Comedy Guide, 10th August 2017Helen Duff: Edinburgh Fringe 2017 interview
A gloriously silly clown who can do a great brummie accent. Her show's blurb also says doughnuts may be shared. So get a ticket.
Laugh Out London, 7th August 2017Fringe picks: one woman shows (part two)
You know the drill by now. Let's get started before the Fringe does proper. Here's three more brilliant and brave women creating cutting-edge work at this year's Fringe, solo.

Looking for something more than conventional stand-up comedy at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2017? Don't worry, there are loads of idiots out there pretending to be other people, or conjuring up imaginary worlds or playing with props and people in fun, inventive ways.
