2019 Edinburgh Fringe
Anna Drezen: Okay Get Home Safe!
A cracking hour of stand-up and near-the-knuckle satire on female fascination with true crime and its shadow over everyday life. The show is peppered with hilarious spoof adverts, including one that was deemed way too dark for Saturday Night Live.
The Saturday Night Live writer and former editor-at-large of online satirical women's magazine Reductress comes to the Fringe for the first time with a show all about true crime, the dark side of reality TV and very powerful ghosts. As seen on Comedy Central and CollegeHumour and heard on The Guilty Feminist podcast. 'Like Tina Fey before her, Anna Drezen is setting the tone for [SNL]' (PasteMagazine.com). 50 Funniest People in Brooklyn (Brooklyn Magazine).

Mark Fisher, Lyndsey Winship and Brian Logan, The Guardian, 14th June 2019All the best Edinburgh Fringe previews in London
Don't get me wrong, I love Edinburgh, with it's Hogwartsy cobbles and granite grandeur, seeped in history and united by culture, heritage and a too-often-racist hatred of the English. But when it comes to the Edinburgh Festival, the major advantage of Edinburgh, that it's nowhere near London, becomes its major drawback for all of us keen to see some of the country's best comedy.
