It's 2am, we've seen two fantastic shows already. What a start to this year's #EdFringe 😍

Siân Docksey's Pole Yourself Together! is my favourite thing at the Edinburgh Fringe so far. Great pole dance stand-up comedy bit about existential dread https://tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on/sian-docksey-pole-yourself-together

There are people who understand that you need to use all the rules in #Monopoly to stop it being bad. But Benjamin Alborough explains why not being bad isn't being good. How can you improve Monopoly at #Edfringe? Let's find out in the latest #podcast from the Edinburgh Fringe.

"What does it mean to be a man in the 21st century?" That's the starting point for a fascinating musical (#Asexuality) and a fascinating #EdinburghFringe #Podcast chat with #RebeccaMcGlynn on the show and her life.

Went to see Horizon Showcase: TOM as my last show this #edfringe. Thoroughly interesting modern dance and (partially, don’t fool yourself) live music. Last year I saw Night Dances in the same venue, and it had the same vibe. Just a tip though: avoid the second row of chairs, they get to see the least.

It was fantastic to return to EdFringe for the first time since the global pandemic.

The world's largest arts festival, with thousands of shows by artists from around the globe running daily covering dance, theatre, music, comedy, and much more besides was huge fun.

We saw dozens of shows in less than a week. Exhausting, but worth it.

Delighted to have seen so many new acts early in their careers. Laughed and cried most days.

An Evening of Joy indeed!

Also:

Janine Harouni: Fantastic and just solidly funnt start to finish ( also she's doing this while heavily pregnant so serious respect )

Anna Piper Scott: also a brilliant comedian i've not seen before

Frankie Thompson and Liv Ello: doing a brillant theatre comedy about body dismorphia

and Cowboys and Lesbians: a two person comedy theatre coming of age story intermixed with cut tos this hammy overacted cowboy fanfiction, it's great

#edfringe #edinburgh #edfringe2023 #comedy

Was at the edinburgh fringe all last week and have some recommendations if anyone is up there:

Krystal Evans: an absolutely brilliant standup first big show comedian ( forewarned it's very dark subject matter )

Ahir Shar doing great Political Comedy as always

Kieran Hodgson has a very solid scripted standup with a lot of impressions that is so brilliantly dense with jokes i kinda wanna see it twice

Children’s Underground Ghost Show by @CityEdinTours | @EdFests @EdFringe | #EdFringe #EdFests #Edinburgh #GhostTour #FringeRecommendation #FillYerBoots

I took my niece and her friend on an underground ghost tour in the Old Town of Edinburgh today. It's led by Edinburgh City Tours who organise many tours of Edinburgh all year round. I am a bit of a feardie so was hoping that since this said it was suitable for children from five years and up it wouldn't be too scary!

A Midsummer Dream in Auld Reekie: a Scots adaptation by John Archer | #TheatreReview #FringeReview #EdFringe #comedy #FillYerBoots | @LeitheatreEdin

A Midsummer Dream in Auld Reekie is an adaptation of the familiar Shakespeare play, written in both modern and more traditional Scots and transported from Athens to Edinburgh. This is quite appropriate given Edinburgh is often known as the Athens of the North! I attended on Friday evening with various family members and we…

What if a bed could sing? That's the premise of "Bed: The Musical", a new piece of work debuting in Edinburgh this month. Writer Tim Anfilogof and Director Matthew Gould join me on the latest #EdFringe #podcast to talk about their new musical piece of furniture.
