Rizal Van Geyzel: Single Fatherhood is a 55-minute free stand-up show by Bowtie Productions / Free Festival, performed at The Attic as part of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. The comedian — once jailed for telling jokes about being Muslim in Malaysia — has lost his business, lost his wife, and is now looking after three kids on his own. The show is a stand-up performance about survival, single parenthood and trying not to fall apart, asking whether he is keeping it together (barely) and what the alternative would mean for his children. Suitable for ages 18 and over.
Why see this show?
A stand-up show with genuine stakes behind it — someone doing comedy about circumstances that are actually difficult. The free admission removes any barrier to finding out whether his delivery matches the premise.
