2017 Edinburgh Fringe
Phill Jupitus Is Porky The Poet In Survivalve
Phill Jupitus brings his fifth poetry show to Edinburgh with PBH's Free Fringe. As our world drifts inexorably towards an uncertain and troubling future, Phill Jupitus will gamely attempt to take your mind off the horror, misery and chaos with mildly diverting poetry, easy going chit-chat and splendid shoes, not forgetting the daily treat of Ten Line Fringe, constructed purely from show titles at this year's festival. So join Phill's stanza-bandying alterego Porky the Poet for this unmissable lunch time treat! Indoors! Near a bar! Free badge!

Stars from comedy's punk past return to Fringe
They were at the vanguard of political comedy. Now Alexei Sayle, Craig Ferguson and Sue Perkins are heading back to the festival, as it celebrates its 70th birthday.

Porky the Poet is amazing, he is not only lyrically lush and poetically poignant but also has an on stage presence and humour reminiscent of the late great Phil "comedy bear" Jupitus.
Not only was this the best free fringe show I saw over the course of a week but the best show I saw period. This guy is even funnier live, then when he is on the telly box, Cool guest poet also in attendance.
