Line up
Pete Heat : Blimey (Edinburgh Preview)
A joyously unhinged hour of stand-up, magic and inspired lunacy.
?Like Noel Fielding performing sleight of hand, some lanky, cuddly love-child of Demetri Martin and Mitch Hedberg? FEST
But what is magic? How do magicians do it? WHY do they do it? Don?t they know everyone hates them? What?s with the clothes and the little beards? Pete tackles these issues head on, with great jokes, mind-blowing and surreal tricks, and fascinating anecdotal peeks behind the curtain into the world of the professional magician, as we journey down Pete?s sleeve, through various parallel universes and into his sac magique
?I have never seen a better magician than this lanky dude? Dawn French
Pete is one of the world?s top magicians. He taught actual Dumbledore (well, he was hired by Jude Law as a magic coach for Fantastic Beasts), and he regularly rubs shoulders with celebrities all over the globe. He stars in a number of TV series, including Secrets of The Brain and Around The World In 80 Tricks (Prime Video), as well as various critically acclaimed solo shows. He even creates magic for other magicians, working behind the scenes for shows like Tricked and Britain?s Got Talent.
He loves magic, but he?s starting to realise he kind of hates it too. It?s amazing, but it?s embarrassing.
Can Pete fend off existential dread using a pack of cards? Will he make you look at your OWN life choices in a new light, and come away feeling refreshed and fulfilled? Probably not. It?s a funny show though.
?Excellent at what he does, and also very, very funny? FringeGuru * * * * *
Hate magic? You?ll love this show. Love magic? You?ll REALLY love this show.
James Dowdeswell : Beers Of A Clown ( Camden Fringe Preview)
James Dowdeswell, as seen on ?Russell Howard?s Good News? and ?Ricky Gervais? Extras? shares his passion for the funny side of Beer. James was born and brewed in a West Country pub. He is the author of ?The Pub Manifesto: A Comedian Stands Up For Pubs? published by CAMRA. Previous Fringe shows include " Perfect Pub" and superb pun titled "Wine , Ale & I"
?I have known James for 20 years and his pub stories are the stuff of legend.? - Russell Howard
?A real master of the comedian?s craft.? - Chortle
