2016 Edinburgh Fringe
Emma Sidi: Telenovela
After last year's critically acclaimed debut, Emma Sidi is back and with her she's bringing passionate, obsessive and revengeful character comedy. Think Mexican passion, soap operatic pain and transglobal heartache. We're talking intercontinental emotion on a fringe comedy scale. With dancing. Yeah, there's that too. This is no soap opera. This is telenovela. 'Writing so rich and rewarding' **** (Fest). 'A creative new comic force' (Chortle.co.uk). As heard on BBC Radio 4 Extra and Radio 4 Fresh from the Fringe 2015.
