Friday started late but managed to get free tickets to The Sunday Defensive, best comedy we saw at the festival. They reminded us of Inbetweeners and Mighty Boosh, they had great repore with each other which kept us thoroughly entertained and will happy go and see them again, even without a free ticket. I highly recommend going to see them while they are still performing in a ‘Portacabin at the back end of a car park,’ as they said during the show. I can’t see them staying there for long!
Alex and I then rushed over to see reel to real our other free ticket. For us it was biggest disappointment of the whole festival. We left early.
We then went to Tim Fitzhigham: Gentleman Adventurer. I enjoyed his personable nature, chats to people as they came in and honesty that he wonderful idea of the eco venue has leaked and damaged the electrics. His opening songs were witty and stories were engaging.
It was then a sprint over the other side of Edinburgh to see the vive le cabaret. The venue was superb and it was the perfect event to round off my Fringe experience with short snippets of several different acts. The hose Desmond O'Connor set a high standard of performance for the start with his brilliant songs, The show flowed really well and when after an hour and fifteen minuets they declared the end of the show I was shocked at how fast it went. The best act was the Australian group called Circus Trip Tease; they had everything you would want from a circus acrobatic act.
