Ooh Marvellous Again! This Week's Edinburgh Previews

Jul 18, 2011 23:01

Squee! How happy am I? Two fabulous acts coming to the Fishmarket this week, and this time I am definitely not going to miss Andrew O'Neill - because I am hosting! Yay!

ANDREW O'NEILL - ALTERNATIVE
Funny comedy show by longhaired man (includes short play about gravy). All styles of comedy covered, guaranteed (some twice).
**** (Chortle.co.uk), **** (List), **** (Metro)
‘Andrew O'Neill is like comedy ball-lightning. Fast, electrifying and even funnier than the misfortunes of others’ (Alan Moore: Watchmen, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen)
‘One of the most distinctive, imaginative comedians emerging today ... approaching the top of his craft’ (Scotsman)
‘Always a delight’ (Time Out).
--------------------------​--------------------------​------------------
DIANE SPENCER - ALL PERVADING MADNESS
2011's breakout comedy star tells 'a cleverly inter-woven series of dark, edgy and hilarious experiences' (Theatreview.org.nz) covering one journey home descending into madness.
Chortle Best Newcomer 2011. Best Comedy (Emerging) Nominee, Adelaide Fringe 2011.
‘Winsome and devilish' (Guardian). 'Deliciously dirty, raucously rude and delightfully intelligent talent' **** (ThreeWeeks).
'She could be the female Jim Jefferies, with an honesty and humility that makes her abject embarrassment riotously hilarious' **** (Chortle.co.uk). 'The crowd was mad for it: roaring with laughter, squealing with delight, and occasionally screaming in terror' (Advertiser).

Not recommended for the prudish!
ADULTS ONLY!

Thursday 21st July, 8pm-11pm The Nook Cafe in The Fishmarket

Northampton, Northamptonshire
