2011 Edinburgh Fringe
Caroline Mabey's One Minute Silence
Unspeakably brilliant Caroline Mabey takes the ultimate challenge in this mind-bending, world record attempt to be quiet. Assisted by her cartoon sidekicks Kip the Coffee Pot and Mr Skrangles, maverick stand-up Caroline utilises all the latest fully scientific super-methods to remain silent for up to 60 seconds. You simply won't believe your ears. This year's David Blaine. 'The slightly deranged offspring of a menage-a-trois between Vic Reeves, Harry Hill and Floella Benjamin' (Evening Standard), 'Kooky, quirky and delicious' (Time Out), 'Pick of the week' (Guardian), 'Oddball genius ... inspired hilarity from this always entertaining performer' (Chortle.co.uk).
