Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 3rd August 2016Radio Times review
This Australian comic, based in London for more than 20 years, has had Edinburgh success with her idiosyncratic shows in which she tells stories about her action-packed life. Here are adaptations of four of them, starting with her production from last year in which she revealed that she's an adopted child who, from the age of 18, went in search of her birth mother.
It's a real adventure involving a private eye and then meticulous research through social media that led to clues in three countries. Frances-White's funny yet moving yarn will make you want to tune in to the next tale.
