2018 Edinburgh Fringe
Viv Groskop: Vivalicious
As heard on BBC Radio 4 and as seen on BBC One's This Week, Viv Groskop presents Vivalicious, a show about self-help in the coming age of President Oprah Winfrey. In this age of reinvention, Viv wants to be the best possible version of herself. So why is that so hard? Does there come a time when you should just give up and accept you are not that great a human being? 'Fresh and original' (Sara Pascoe). 'Wonderfully witty' (Time Out). 'Superb. At the top of her game' ***** (EdinburghFestival.org). 'Relaxed, charming, completely compelling' **** (Chortle.co.uk).

The Guardian, 14th August 2018Speaking in tongues: part 1
Stand-up comedy can be a tough business. There are so many moving parts it's ridiculous. First you must write it, then rewrite it, then agonise over every word before rewriting it again. Then there's the bigger picture - is it funny? When starting out you're working with an entirely blank canvas which means whittling down from infinity to a tight five which can be maddening.
