About the show
Alex Mason: Obsessed is a free stand-up and multimedia comedy show performed at Room 3 during the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, by Alex Mason and PBH's Free Fringe. Following two previous Edinburgh Fringe runs, Mason brings a smart, silly show analysing her fan-fiction hyper-fixation. The show asks relatable questions about parasocial fandom, smutty books and the particular logic of daydreaming, delivered with a loose, engaging stage presence that has drawn praise from Chortle and BeyondTheJoke.
Why see this show?
Mason has a gift for making the deeply specific feel universally funny — fan-fiction hyper-fixation is her subject but the comedy is about the way obsession itself works. Free entry makes this an easy choice for anyone curious.
