Olaf Falafel's show is always one of the daftest, looniest shows on the Fringe. It's also free if you are what Falafel calls an "opportunistic chancer" who is quick enough to do a runner before Falafel gets to the door with his bucket and card reader at the end. Seriously though, payment is optional but this is deinfitely a show worth paying for.
Do reviews matter? In 2018 early on during the Fringe I reviewed Tom Ward's show and gave it three stars. Towards the end of the festival I was googling around and saw that Ward had written something about seeing a really depressing review at the start of his run. He didn't name me, but I've always had a niggle that it was my review that dented his mental well-being during that Fringe. It probably made it worse that I said it was his best show yet and still only gave it three measly stars.

Walker builds on the long separation caused by Australia’s brutal lockdown to muse on home and
If you are familiar with the improvised hit Showstopper! The Improvised Musical you'll get the idea of CSI: Crime Scene Improvisation almost before the intro music (did I spot the theme from The Sweeney?) has finished. A group of talented ad libbers create a one hour comic crime drama before your very eyes based on your suggestions. It's different every day but judging by the one I saw it should be pretty good fun at any time.
Vir Das has an extraordinary story to tell.
Accused of ‘vilifying the nation’ by the Indian Government he heads home to Mumbai on a plane - afraid he will have to give up his comedy career or abandon his country.
It’s a true story, which happened in 2021, and which Das has made it the framework for this powerful show.
