You’d be right to think that

Our final show of this year’s fringe, show 18, was Lunchbox from @lubnakerr.bsky.social at @pleasance.co.uk - a story of bully and bullied, an enjoyable end. @edfringe.bsky.social #edfringe

Show 17 of this year’s @edfringe.bsky.social was a repeat from last year: The Jaffa Cake Musical from @thegigglemug.bsky.social at @pleasance.co.uk and just as
good as we remembered. #edfringe

Show 16 of @edfringe.bsky.social was The Essence of as udrey with #HelenAnker at @pleasance.co.uk . A superb recreation of Audrey Hepburn as she reminisces. Highly recommended. #edfringe

The staff at the Hanover St @pizzahut.bsky.social were a credit to the company when we struggled with the poor mobile reception and glitchy WiFi. What a pity they (and customers) were treated so shabbily by national management when it chose to remove as much human interaction as possible. #PizzaHut

We first saw #PaulSinha at the fringe in 2004. And this year he was show 15 for us @standcomedyclub.bsky.social and what a fantastic experience it was, still stupendously funny and very highly recommended. We’d have bought his book … had we not already got it. @edfringe.bsky.social #edfringe

Haven’t been to The Big Bite-Size Breakfast @pleasance.co.uk for a few years. Went again this morning for show 14 and loved Menu 3. @edfringe.bsky.social #edfringe

Show 14 of this year’s @edfringe.bsky.social was Who Told You to be Small with #BethKnight.
We weren’t at all sure what to expect, but the hour was funny, entertaining and we learned a load of stuff we had no idea we didn’t know. #edfringe

The undoubted highlight of our fringe so far has been Down to Chance - two ridiculously skilled actors providing a powerful and truly moving piece of storytelling. @pleasance.co.uk @edfringe.bsky.social #edfringe

Show 11 of this year was Dead Air @pleasance.co.uk with @alfrunrose.bsky.social - interesting take on grief and AI @edfringe.bsky.social #edfringe

Still wish you were here, @noisenextdoor.bsky.social
(And you, @lauralexx.bsky.social )

So it would seem that @mitchbenn.bsky.social has performed at each of the 20+ @edfringe.bsky.social we’ve been to - how did we only find him this year?? A storming 9th show of this year’s #edfringe

What a joy our seventh @edfringe.bsky.social show with Alex Prescot turned out to be. Seriously lovely bloke with a real connection with the audience (Alex - we were Ian and Lesley on the front row)

Show 7 of @edfringe this morning is #AlexPrescot - tried to see him on the free fringe last year but were too late to get in @edfringe.bsky.social #edfringe

So @tapefaceboy.bsky.social was an excellent end to our fringe day - innocent, silly, childlike and supremely entertaining at The Pleasance Courtyard @edfringe.bsky.social #edfringe

Credit where due, the organisation by The Pleasance Courtyard on reopening after closing for Storm Floris was first rate. And the staff remained courteous and good humoured throughout. @edfringe.bsky.social #edfringe

A friend recommended @yespaulineeyre.bsky.social to us for last year’s @edfringe.bsky.social by. Loved her so saw her again today, and still relatable and funny
#edfringe

I’ve done my fair share of moaning about the @edfringe.bsky.social app and website, but full marks for their box office’s handling of the closure of The Pleasance courtyard this afternoon, with a timely email confirming the situation. #edfringe

So Shakespeare for Breakfast at C venues was a bit bitty but nevertheless good fun this morning. @edfringe.bsky.social #edfringe

Five show @edfringe.bsky.social day today (obviously! It’s two4one): Shakespeare for Breakfast, @yespaulineeyre.bsky.social , The Poetical Life of Philomena McGuiness, @jennyfromthequiz.bsky.social and finally @tapefaceboy.bsky.social #edfringe

Taking advantage of two4one @edfringe.bsky.social tomorrow and Tuesday - 5 shows booked tomorrow and four on Tuesday.#edfringe

So show 2 of 2025 @edfringe.bsky.social with Tom Rosenthal was really enjoyable - made more so by my being included as a stooge (hope I got the answers right) and seeing Clive Anderson in the audience at Assembly Roxy #edfringe

In the queue to see #TomRosenthal as show 2 of 2025 @edfringe.bsky.social at #AssemblyRoxy #edfringe

So Hot Mess (show 1 of @edfringe.bsky.social for us) from #BirminghamHippodrome at #ThePleasance was great fun. Strong vibes of Six - perhaps unsurprisingly as 50% of the cast performed in it.
