2016 Edinburgh Fringe
Josie Long: Work In Progress
The triple Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee, BBC Radio 4 star and cult optimist Josie Long returns to The Stand with an hour of new material and knockabout fun, as she works towards her eighth stand-up show later in the year. This year's Fringe offering follows up her Fringe, UK, Europe, Australia and New York sell-out show Cara Josephine, which was the overall best-reviewed comedy show of the Fringe in 2014 and was one of The Guardian's Top Ten Stage Shows of the Year. 'Josie Long builds delightful comedy worlds' **** (Times).
