OK, so had a good couple of weeks enjoying Edinburgh shows – most of them over the last weekend. I saw nine in all, which is far too many to be writing full reviews of. So, another NGIAI doomed-to-fail audience interactivity project: which shows do you want to hear about?
- Stewart Lee
- Richard Herring
- Bella and the Beautiful Knight
- Simon Munnery’s 2005 AGM
- A Night of a Thousand Jay Astons
- Ursula Martinez – O.A.P.
- Kiki & Herb
- David Benson’s Conspiracy Cabaret
- Pam Ann
Pick up to three and let me know via the comments (Stewart Lee already has one vote). Once their has been an arbitrary critical mass of votes – or it has become apparent that apathy has broken out amongst my reader 🙂 – I’ll review the winning shows.
