Back with another hour of surreal stupidity. Who knows what it will involve, maybe sandpaper, probably conkers. Whatever it is, I personally guarantee your money back if you actually learn something. 'A barrage of absurdist humour and sharp one-liners' (EdFringeReview.com). 'Falafel has a talent for the tangential with the ruthlessness and timing of any talented stand-up' (Fest). 'Quirkily eccentric... combining modern technology with old-fashioned idiocy' (Scotsman).

Female First, 17th July 2017The Edinburgh interviews 2017: Olaf Falafel
Swedish stand up Olaf Falafel is an idiosyncratic performer to say the least. His latest show is packed full of surrealist energy, entitled The Marmosets Of My Mind. Olaf is also an illustrator, having just published his first children's book, proving him to be a natural creative in other aspects besides performance alone. He will be performing his free show at The City Café throughout August.

Kara Alberts, The Edinburgh Reporter, 3rd July 2017#EdFringe17: Olaf Falafel
Critically acclaimed idiot, Olaf Falafel is back with another hour of surreal stupidity. Who knows what it'll involve, probably conkers, maybe sandpaper. Enjoy 15 minutes in the company of the superior and subversive surrealist.
