Rating: ★★★★ 22nd-25th August @ Pleasance Courtyard What is a rapper to do once they’re grown up? For Doc Brown the answer was comedy. The show starts as most Fringe shows start, with an over the top self voiced intro over dramatic music, but from there Doc Browns show is pretty different.

Rating: ★★★ 14th-26th August @ Gilded Balloon Teviot As soon as this show started I knew it was not quite my thing.
