About Louise Leigh and Pauline Eyre
Aaagony Aunts is a comedy game show from Pauline Eyre and Louise Leigh, performed at Hoot 2 during Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Every day, the two comedians unpack the meaty issues holding back some of the funniest comedians at the Fringe, solving those problems with the help of the audience, kitchen utensils, and the mighty Salad Spinner of Destiny. The show runs for 55 minutes, is suitable for audiences aged 12 and over, and tickets are £6.
Why see this show?
There is something delightfully absurd about two sharp comedians applying genuine advice-column logic — with spatulas — to the existential crises of their fellow Fringe performers. This is warm, playful and built around real audience involvement.
