2018 Edinburgh Fringe
Rob Auton: The Talk Show
In his latest fringe show, Rob Auton talks about talking. In his playful thoughtful exploration of who we speak to, why, how, when and what we say, many very funny arrangements of words are spoken. It's a silly good time that ends up quite inspiring and uplifting. Well worth seeing.
This is a comedy/theatre/spoken word show about talking. Following on from previous shows about hair, sleep, water, faces, the sky and yellow, Rob now turns his attention to talking because he is ready to talk. 'A genuine original. Poetical, philosophical, humane, completely charming and funny to boot' (Guardian). 'His delicate turn of phrase is a delight to hear and he has a truly unique voice, which, among the hundreds of acts at the Fringe, is no mean feat' (BritishComedyGuide.info). 'One of my absolute favourites' (Daniel Kitson) 'Just sad' (Vanessa Feltz).
