anyway, philip escoffey's show - six impossible things before dinner was FANTASTIC. i didn't know what to expect because i hadn't read anything about him (besides him being from the uk). i just assumed it'd be stand-up, boy was i mistaken. spellbound for the entire hour, jenn and i shared "oh my god" moments all the way through. both the sceptics and we the believers walked out going "whaaatt just happened?" i've been sworn to secrecy so can't say anything more. for all the answers you must see the show.
i have three favourite shows now.
only u.s. comic of the festival for me (it seems they shipped a whole lot of uk comedians out instead of convicts this time - in today's climate is there really much difference?) rich hall is otis lee crenshaw was a last minute addition to my festival, and WOW, thank the heavens (and jamie) for it. side-splitting and eyes-watering with great music and just a little dirty at times. the crowd was appreciative and i'm sure half were quite drunk.
four top shows. he made it to the list.
