#EdFringe Day 3


 
So before my flight, I caught 2 shows.  I'm so sad I flew out on Friday - I could have done with at least 2 more days.  Lesson learned!!
 

 


Abi Roberts was a small show, showcasing another comedienne's musical tastes.  Her guest for Friday was Jo Caulfield, who regularly appears on the BBC (radio and TV).  It was small crowd, but the music was good and the chat was really nice, reminiscing through the old hits of the 80s (some of which I didn't know - thanks American radio!).  Jo was really funny, if I had stayed another day, I would have found a way to see her solo show.

My final show was a huge, huge win.  Sold out show for Austentatious, which is an improv group that makes up an Austen novel based on a title suggestion from the audience out of a hat.   The title pulled out was "Identity and Utility", which meant the show had a lot of plumbing jokes.  It was hilarious - the actors were really great at pulling off some ridiculous scenes in period costumes off the top of their head.  Some of them had solo shows as well, again, another time and I would have tried to see their individual shows.

 
After that, I grabbed a food truck hamburger and got soaking wet heading to airport (had to change clothes at airport in the bathroom).  I also did a drive by of my mobile store on the way to the airport - looking proper shady! 
 
 
I can't wait to go back to Edinburgh next August!!!!
