Pierrot Productions • Professional company
About the show
Alex Stringer: Happy Hour is the debut Fringe hour from Alex Stringer, presented by Pierrot Productions at Bunker Three at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Alex got sober in 2017 when she was 23. The show explores what life is like once you get sober — discovering who you really are without substances — and asks the uncomfortable question: what if who you really are is actually also a bit of a dickhead? Described as the debut from a Chortle Hotspot, the show runs for 60 minutes and is suitable for audiences aged 16 and over. Please be aware the show contains strong language and references to addiction, as well as potentially distressing themes.
Why see this show?
An honest and witty debut stand-up hour that treats sobriety not as a triumphant ending but as the start of an even trickier question — Alex Stringer turns real vulnerability into sharp, relatable comedy.
