For this year's Edinburgh Fringe, we've teamed up with Richard Herring (you probably know him best as Journalist from The Battersea Ripper) to offer a peculiar twist on the traditional festival questionnaire - with all the queries taken from his book of Emergency Questions, as originally used on his Leicester Square Theatre Podcast, RHLSTP. Starting with this one: What is the most impressive thing you have ever been underneath?

Becca Moody, Moody Comedy, 18th July 2019Fringe 2019 - Dave Bibby: Crazy Cat Lad-y
Critically acclaimed comedian Dave Bibby (Channel 4, Netflix and Comedy Central) is back with a one-man variety show with a conveyor belt of comedy characters, stand up, sketches, storytelling, cat stories and sick ass rhymes.
The Edinburgh Reporter, 7th July 2019About The Show
If you're a fan of the 1991 classic film 'Hook' you'll love this. Too niche? You'll love it anyway as Dave Bibby takes his hero, Robin Williams, and explores Peter Pan syndrome in millennials. What would Neverland look like in 2019? Plus a picture of a cat falling off a table.
As seen on Channel 4, Netflix, BBC Comedy, Comedy Central and yer mum.
Discussing his forthcoming Edinburgh appearance Dave said: "I think this show sums up what the Free Fringe is all about. It's the most heartfelt and ambitious thing I've ever written yet completely and unashamedly silly."
