For the first time in three years I won't be working during the Fringe in Edinburgh. This means i have weekends off, only have to work eight hours a day, and I can see as many shows as I can blag/afford to go to. Sure there's a few shows at The Playhouse, but there's only five different shows all month and not the usual 40 shows a day i was used to at The Stand.
So this morning I made some vegan waffles and sat down with the Fringe brochure. I went straight to the comedy section and highlighted all the shows below. There's people I've seen before, people i know from The Stand, and others like B.J Novak that I've never seen.
I still have to work my way through the other sections of the brochure, but after some of the listings for the Traverse and Summerhall i'm pretty sure i'll be adding lots to it.
