About the show
Barnie Duncan: Oooky Pooky is a stand-up comedy show by Rucks's Leather Interiors and Topper & Fred, a professional company, performed at Roxyboxy during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Barnie, a funny boy from New Zealand and half of Different Party, recently found a tape of his mum talking to an astrologist in 1980 during which his entire life was predicted. It has been strange to see how much of it has come true — and a little bit oooky pooky. The show is a subversive hour blending stand-up, physical comedy and surreal storytelling. Running 60 minutes, it is suitable for audiences aged 14 and over.
Why see this show?
A stand-up hour anchored in one eerie, very real discovery — a tape that predicted the performer's life. Barnie's particular blend of physical comedy and surreal storytelling keeps the show from going anywhere predictable.
