It feels like a bigger thing than usual that it’s over, given I don’t plan on doing it next year.
The last Monday show was sold out, which is a really lovely thing to happen as most people think the festival is already over by that point, and also means a fair few artists showed up, a very flattering thing.
I am thinking I might offer to direct some shows so that next festival I can keep a little hand in, but that might just be trying to keep a cake I’ve already eaten, and will also partly depend on Real Life Events.
Also of course of course I’ve been flattened this week with some post-Fringe (luckily) non-COVID sickness and have had to just rest as much as can be rested with a small energetic person who rises like a hyped up ferret scientist eager to greet the day, leap face first into a fountain and experiment with what happens when you put wet sand in your hair. I’ve spent the last few days in london trying to chill while gently holding on to the show so that it doesn’t feel weird to do it again at the filming of Twist this Sunday, (which sold out flatteringly quickly and I’m very excited about).
Truly happy to be working with Chris at Go Faster Stripe, who is what we would call a Mensch.
The Bugle: Live
I’ll be joining Andy Zaltzman and Chris Addison to do a Live Bugle in london on the 16th September! This could be the only Live Bugle I do this year, so don’t miss out. It’s also on Rosh Hashanah, so come watch Andy play his famous Jewish game of How Lapsed Are You?
16 September @ Leicester Square Theatre

Writers Meeting and Workshop (Guest Host Alison Spittle)

The keen eyed among you will have noticed that the writers meeting this week clashes with my filming, and as such I will only be there for the beginning, before handing over to the inimitable Alison Spittle who will be your substitute teacher for the Workshop. I have every faith in her, as I did in Catriona last week who emergency picked up the last half hour of the workshop when Edfringe edfringed all over my end of the connection.
Weekly Salon
Monday, 4 September⋅9:00 – 10:00am (UTC +1)

Just listened to you Tea with Alice with Aaron Simmonds—interesting, funny, all the things. Wish I could be in London for Rosh Hashanah.
Alison did a great job!
Hi, I noticed late the linktree link is broken because it includes the parenthesis and period.
