2015 Edinburgh Fringe
Twonkey's Stinking Bishop
'A dog's dinner of unexpected, absurd, even offensive content. It's also a classic' **** (Time Out). 'A sublime cloud of nonsense' **** (Scotsman). 'Oddly entertaining and utterly bizarre.' **** (FringeGuru.com). 'Mind-boggling from start to finish' **** (BroadwayBaby.com). A wild British eccentric in the mould of Vivian Stanshall or Ivor Cutler. Fast becoming an Edinburgh Fringe institution. Sacked from Looney Tunes during a purple patch and ready to snap. In this wonderful new show Twonkey's Restaurant is now owned by the evil conjuror Mugulvery. The Stinking Bishop cheese is loaded with Dadaist dynamite and it's going to blow.

British Comedy Guide, 25th August 2015The trauma of a 5* review & why I don't like fauning
Maybe absurdism and 'outa left field' comedians are starting to make inroads into mainstream media consciousness. Even if I have no idea what 'outa left field' actually specifically means.
John Fleming, John Fleming's Blog, 23rd August 2015The unavoidable Lewis Schaffer & the African President
Yesterday, I was talking to critic Kate Copstick and I think we came to the conclusion that, this year at the Edinburgh Fringe, there is no one 'hot' act whom everyone is talking about.
John Fleming, John Fleming's Blog, 17th August 2015Naked ballet dancers, pigeons and Egg Roulette shock
More pigeon news. On Thursday in this blog, I mentioned the tussle performer Adrienne Truscott had with pigeons inside her flat. Yesterday, Malcolm Hardee Comedy Awards judge Claire Smith of The Scotsman told me she had seen last year's Malcolm Hardee Award winner Candy Gigi running out of a sandwich shop.
John Fleming, John Fleming's Blog, 16th August 2015One man's day at the Edinburgh Fringe
Mark, a man of mystery who runs the British Comedy Guide website, had sent me a piece about Abigoliah Schamaun, who has been plastering fake review quotes and stars on her show posters. He suggested she might be a worthy Malcolm Hardee Cunning Stunt Award nominee.
