60 minutesHollywood
Jay Sodagar's intelligent comedy returns, but this time he talks about love of all kinds. How getting a dog reframes how you approach and love others. But what about the others? Half politics with topical commentary, the other half social commentary on love. Don't bring tissues, it's not that kind of show. The show is not Love Actually and not soppy, but a funny, intelligent, truthful insight. Is love a projection of your soul or is it a spiritual vibration or a different feeling to everything else in life?

About the show

Jay Sodagar returns to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe with intelligent stand-up comedy about love in all its forms. The show examines how getting a dog reframes how you approach and love others, while weaving in topical political commentary alongside social observations on love. The show poses questions: is love a projection of the soul, a spiritual vibration, or a different feeling entirely? Running 60 minutes at the Hollywood venue, tickets are £5. Suitable for ages 12 and over.

Why see this show?

Stand-up that mixes political commentary with genuine philosophical curiosity about love makes for an unusual and generous combination. At £5 for 60 minutes, it is a thoughtful evening that does not take itself too seriously.
