2018 Edinburgh Fringe
Paul Sinha: The Two Ages of Man
After last year's sell-out run, Paul returns to Edinburgh with his life, seemingly, still bordering on disarray. Having spent two decades juggling disparate careers, loneliness, heartbreak, a multitude of vices and an overwhelming urge to show off his general knowledge, he finds that just as one problem disappears, another suddenly emerges. Paul is 48 and is pondering the unthinkable. Is he past it? Was Shakespeare wrong? Are there only Two Ages of Man? 'An utter treat' ***** (EdFestMag.com). 'Jam-packed with laughs' ***** (One4Review.co.uk). 'Comedy gold' **** (Scotsman). **** (Times). **** (Chortle.co.uk).
