Jeremy Lion: My Life!
Jeremy Lion • Professional company
About Jeremy Lion
Jeremy Lion returns to Edinburgh for this character comedy show at Pleasance Two, presenting an almost accurate stagger through his show business career. The legendary children's entertainer revisits glittering triumphs, crushing disappointments and moments best left unexamined — asking whether he has finally made sense of it all, and whether he should have done something else with his life. The show features songs, surprises and maybe a drink. It is described as fun for the whole family but not suitable for children, and contains adult themes and references to alcohol.
Why see this show?
An affectionate and wryly self-aware romp through a show business life that has gone in directions best left unexplained. Songs, surprises and a healthy dose of existential doubt — Jeremy Lion at Pleasance Two is an evening of warm, gently unhinged character comedy.
