Punchline Recommends The Delightful Sausage: Nowt But Sea

Punchline Recommends Ciarán Dowd: King Rodolfo
“King Rodolfo is taking over the Queen Dome at the Pleasance this year and it’s a marvel to behold. Since his last Fringe incarnation as a priest in 2019, Ciarán Dowd’s dazzling character has become a high-handed monarch, but how did he become king? Can he take his power to new heights? What’s his morning routine? All our questions are answered with a mix of bravado, beautifully spoken nonsense, and cheeky asides from this Spanish(-ish) lord among men.” 4 stars
Punchline recommends Crybabies: Bagbeard
“Comedy at the Fringe is all about freedom to be original, fun, daft and brilliant and this bumper sketch adventure has it all” 4.5 stars
How the devil are you, Tarot?
“Comedy is great for giving people a direction in which to point their laughs so they don’t look unwell”
