Harry Deansway is angry
The scrappy comedy impresario on what's right - and wrong - in London's comedy scene...
Andrew Mickel, Such Small Portions, 18th January 2013Comedy in 2012 - some things you may have missed
Chaos! Death! Violence! Re-inventions! Mid-life crises! Comebacks! Disappearing venues! Harry Deansway's hair! Here are some of this year's most memorable moments on the London circuit and up at the Fringe...
London Is Funny, 27th December 2012It's time to rename the Edinburgh Fringe
Having spent the last 4 weeks in Edinburgh it is clear that anything but a fringe festival is taking place.
Harry Deansway, The Fix, 3rd September 2010Tim Key and Bo Burnham in conversation
Tim Key the star of last years Fringe sits down and chats to the star of this years Bo Burnham for an hour of self indulgence, deep comedy philosophy and back slapping, it's also over 3000 words long.
Harry Deansway, The Fix, 26th August 2010Fix Top 20 - Part 1
With over 906 comedy shows to chose from, it can be hard to pick the right show to go and see. Yes... part of the fun of the Fringe is taking a risk, but just think, you could have spent that £12 on three pints instead of listening to some Oxbridge twat playing a drunk children's entertainer, or some self indulgent arsehole doing a routine about British Rail Sandwiches. With the Fix top 20 an ill informed decision is a thing of the past.
Harry Deansway, The Fix, 9th August 2010Edinburgh Editorial
I've got an idea. It involves taking 90% of the UK comedy industry away from where it is based in London to the capital of Scotland 500 miles away.
Harry Deansway, The Fix, 6th August 2010Dawn of the Dead
If you didn't know any better you would think that live comedy around the UK was as unimaginative as its TV counterpart.
Harry Deansway, The Fix, 9th July 2010Comedy preview: A Series Of Psychotic Episodes, radio
Radio comedy is largely populated by plummy World Service voices doing skits that sound like unironic Mr Cholmondley-Warner sketches from Harry Enfield's TV series, so the different tone and voice of Miriam Elia's A Series Of Psychotic Episodes really stands out.
