Tell us a bit about The Marmosets Of My Mind.


The Marmosets Of My Mind is the follow up to my award nominated debut show Olaf Falafel and The Cheese Of Truth. It's similar to last year's show in that it contains a lot of absurdist humour and audience interaction but there are less six second videos this time around due to the untimely death of the video platform Vine (RIP). The marmosets referred to in the title are the thoughts that run around my mind, they also appear on what many (just me) are calling the Fringe's best animated flick-book flyers.


Why bring it to Edinburgh?

Because it's a really fun show that does silly and strange but not at the expense of jokes.
I had such a great time last year at The City Cafe last year that I was on the phone to Alex (Laughing Horse) literally the day after the festival finished asking if I could have the same room and time this year.


What sets it apart from other shows at the Fringe?
A) It's fun!
B) There is a world famous mystery guest.
C) It includes a unique musical introduction/finale - without giving too much away cleaning products are involved
What are your top tips for surviving the festival?

Don't party too hard too soon, as they say in Iceland - Checkjavík before you Reykjavík


Who would you recommend comes to see you?

Anyone who wants to feel happier than they did an hour before and who doesn't mind a bit of oddness.
