* Some acts above have an asterisk

them (see below)!
Markus
Clarke Puppet Maker |
I was the only person in the
audience for this show. The performer asked
me to stay and even bought me a couple of
drinks! |
Pappy’s Fun Club
|
I got offered a free ticket for their show
this year as they liked my review from last
year, but I had already bought my ticket!
I got to meet the cast before the show though!
They got nominated for the If.comeddie award,
but sadly didn’t win. Hopefully it will
raise their profile as they are well worth
going to see! |
Niblock v Gig-a-Tron |
Didn’t get round to seeing this show.
The first time I tried, it wasn’t on
at the venue (Ivanhoe) listed in the fringe,
as the venue was completely boarded up, and
the second time, I went to the new venue it
was listed under and found it had been replaced
by a Stiltskin concert! |
Amateur Pro-Celebrity
Karaoke |
I got to sing “Under the Bridge”
by Red Hot Chili Peppers, and do some juggling
and came runner up in this show! |
Shappi Khorsandy
/ Arturart |
The most heavily pregnant woman who has
ever appeared on stage at the fringe! She
issued marigold gloves to someone in the front
row, just in case she gave birth during the
show! Her pregnancy test result (with the
colour blue) was on display in Arthur Smith’s
art installation called “Arturart”
(which won spirit of the fringe award) |
Frankie Boyle |
I got filmed for the 5min insert at the
start of his show where a guy tries to take
the mickey out of the public. I don’t
think they used my short clip, as I came out
with a few good one-liners that the warm up
guy wasn’t expecting! |
Jerry Sadowitz |
I arrived just before the show, and the
only seats still empty were the entire front
row! Needless to say, I was one of the 2
volunteers he used, and I managed to run
on stage afterwards and grab the playing
card with my signature on it for keepsakes!
Jerry managed to make
my signature somehow appear on a card already
signed by another audience member! |
?!? (Quiz)
|
A quiz with no rules! I came 2nd in this
competition and won a springy cat and a
whisky golf ball! This is definitely a style
of quiz that could catch on in the future,
especially when you are given extra points
for the funniest answers!
Here are my
answers (click to enlarge!) - can you guess
what the questions might have been?!
