Laugh Out London, 2nd August 2017Heroes of Fringe: Launch Show review
Last night's showcase packed in 20 eclectic acts performing the briefest of samples of their wares (and fans of such a pacy format should be aware of Chortle's own Fast Fringe coming up on the 25th). As Simon Morley, co-creator of Puppetry of the Penis, pointed out: 'I've travelled the world getting my cock out, and I'm the most normal person on the bill', as his practised storytelling seemed a poor fit with the other oddballs.

Michael Brunstrom, Short Com, 10th August 2016Kate Copstick's festival diary
