Lulu Popplewell brings a work-in-progress stand-up hour to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, trying out brand-new material for one week only. The show touches on eggs, death and miscellaneous subjects, and may feature a piano and will definitely feature a dog. Performed at Nineties, the set runs for 60 minutes. Tickets are £2.50, and the show is for audiences aged 16 and over. Expect strong language, audience participation and themes that may be on the dark side for a lunchtime slot.
Why see this show?
A rare chance to see new material being road-tested live, complete with a dog in tow. At £2.50 it's an absurdly good deal for a genuinely fresh stand-up set with biting wit and a willingness to go somewhere unexpected.
