Rob Deering: Charmageddon
One of the things ThreeWeeks has a history of loving is the lovable Rob Deering. He’s only on for one night this Brighton Fringe, so make sure you’ve got your tickets, because you shouldn’t miss him. Not just because he’s a funny chap, he’s a lovely chap too, and I can’t recommend him enough. And I will never forget those two beers he bought me at the Underbelly in Edinburgh back in 2002 or whenever that was. And no, that’s not the reason he’s recommended here. ThreeWeeks do not take bribes for publication favours, and that’s an absolute rule. OK?
Udder Place, 17 May, 8:15pm (9:15pm), £12.00 (£10.00), fpp 19 |

Mayday! The Musical
The Maydays
And another thing ThreeWeeks loved this last year was the Maydays. In fact, ThreeWeeks have something of a soft spot for improv generally, whether it’s from professional troupes or aspiring student types. And that’s what this is, of course, improvised comedy, and this one’s a musical comprising song, dance, music and, of course, gags. Presumably a different show every night (well, my reviewer only went once), you could probably go both nights they’re on in Brighton this festival and still get value for money. Hurrah.
Udder Place, 19–20 May, 8:15pm (9:15pm), £11.00 (£9.00), fpp 19 |

Coco Peru
Coco Peru is an award winning, award nominated, cross-dressing storyteller with great reviews that praise her biting humour, glamour, and wryness. And if there’s one thing I like, it’s a spot of wryness. Especially when tempered with a bit of biting humour, glamour and cross dressing. Not seen Miss Coco Peru in action, but I’d like to, and what’s more, I’d like you to, too.
Komedia, 18–21 May, times vary, £12.50 (£10.50), fpp 16 |
