Book NowAbout Liam Duffy
Liam Duffy is a complex, intelligent, sleazy, hilarious and hairy comedian whose creative muses are Paul Verhoeven and Francis Bacon. In this sixty-minute game show at Just The Sub-Atomic Room, two lucky audience members have their intelligence, perseverance and crunch challenged through a series of pickle-based games that test all their senses. Audience participation and strong language are expected; vinegar splashback is a known risk.
Why see this show?
An absurdist game show built entirely around pickles is not an obvious pitch, but Liam Duffy commits to it with enough conviction to make the premise irresistible. If you are happy to sit in the vinegar splash zone, this is Edinburgh Fringe comedy at its most chaotically specific.
