Comedy is still king, but with less attendants

The Edinburgh Fringe Festival is with us and this year, more than ever comedy is king. Yet, this year, more than ever, stand-up comedy rules supreme, and it's to be expected. Not only is the nation on the search for post-Brexit referendum, negative interest rates, pre-President Trump laughs, it's on the search for cheap laughs. That is, recession laughs, shows which are relatively cheap to stage.
