Google Chris McEvoyAbout Chris McEvoy
Chris McEvoy presents an oddball comedy slideshow that starts with a ridiculous premise — he listened to 100 covers of a single song so you don't have to — and finds deeper truths below the surface. Along the way he offers insights into how streaming platforms affect the media we consume. The show features graphs, strange analogies and frantic twists, and has been described as perhaps the weirdest deep dive into adaptations of popular culture of all time. Strong language is present throughout.
Why see this show?
A genuinely unusual comedy premise that earns its place at the Fringe: one person, one song, one hundred covers, and a slideshow that somehow becomes about something much bigger. Cheap, inventive and unexpectedly thoughtful.
