Edinburgh Fringe
Dane Baptiste: Bapsquire
Most of us are supposed to mellow with age and Dane shouldn't be the angry black man the media portrays him to be at times. But the more things change, the more they stay the same. It's been a long time since he was the first black British act nominated for an Edinburgh award. But post-pandemic, he's now back and more mature with his adult alias: Bapsquire.
