Heroes 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.

Jay Richardson, Glasgow Live, 13th March 2017Phil Kay: Laugh and Death, The Criterion
Abstract is how this hour-long show first appeared to kick off. Phil approached the stage from the back of the venue donning a plastic bag on his head and spraying some Pine Fresh odour eater. Unusual I hear you say, quirky even...two adjectives that most certainly fit the bill when it comes to this Scottish comedian.
