“I didn’t realise you’d taken me to a children’s comedy show” said my friend as we left ventriloquist Max Fulham’s Edinburgh Fringe show. They were joking, but take out a few swears and a minor subtext about mental health and intrusive thoughts and you’ve got a fantastic kids show. There were some small faces in the front row at this performances and as well as learning a few new words I think they had a great time. As did the rest of the audience.
