Do you ever get déjà vu? Dylan's last show - 'an innovative way to experience a quarter-life crisis' (TheWeeReview.com) - ended with him deciding to have children. Since then, he's been stuck in a time loop. Yes, like that film. No, Bill Murray isn't in this... If you've ever felt like nothing you do will change things... this show is for you. If your thoughts go round like windmills, getting stuck down rabbit holes... this show is for you. If you enjoy copious amounts of repetition... you get the idea. Do you ever get déjà vu?

Edinburgh Fringe act flummoxed after making unexpected discovery at accommodation
The family of Edinburgh Fringe performer Dylan Dodds were left perplexed after they made a surprising discovery. They turned up at the holiday apartment, but when they opened the front door, discovered a family was already staying there.
Katie Williams, Edinburgh Live, 8th August 2024Unfiltered #4 - The reality of getting Fringe ready with Dylan Dodds: GroundDodds Day
I usually start each fortnight by watching an episode of the sitcom Friends. Then writing my long-running blog comparing it to my life. No one reads it. But it passes the time. Then I think about the film Groundhog Day a lot. Every day in fact.

Maybe... but the best comedy defies TikTokification, says Dylan Dodds.

"I thought it would be fun to do a stand-up show where we're all trapped in a time loop."
WJ Quinn, The Quintessential Review, 16th June 2024More details
At the end of his last show Dylan decided to try and have children. Now he feels like he's stuck in a time loop. With GroundDodds Day Dylan lets audiences join him in the loop, if only for an hour. And no, Bill Murray isn't in it.
How do you build a family and move forward when every day feels like the one before?
Whether a new parent, a prospective parent or a "no way I don't want kids," this show is for you. If you've ever felt you can't change things, this show is for you. If your thoughts go around in windmills getting stuck down rabbit holes, this show is for you. If you enjoy copious amounts of repetition... you get the idea.
Directed by the highly acclaimed Ian Lane, Dylan's show warns against the dangers of obsession. It's gag filled and just slightly theatrical, as we delve into Dylan's psyche to find out how he got stuck in the time loop in the first place.
