Back by popular demand for 2017, our Brighton Bites series offer short, witty and slightly tongue-in-cheek insights into shows performing at England’s largest arts festival. Hopefully, they will whet your appetite to try something new at this year’s Brighton Fringe.
Here, A&E Comedy tells us about their show,Enter the Dragons, which they’ll be performing atExeter Street Hall.
How would you describe your show in one sentence?
An unruly combination of joy and dissent for anyone who is considering ageing.
Why Brighton Fringe for this show?
Brighton Fringe is the perfect showcase for a frank and funny show, with the potential to reach a great audience across Brighton. Great reputation for a fun, exciting eclectic programme of work.
How have you been preparing for Brighton Fringe?
Flyering, chatting, tweeting, Facebooking. Spreading the word Far and Wide. Wearing support stockings. Pelvic floor exercises.
What do you think sets your show apart from all the other festival offerings?
There are no other shows in which two women in their 50s wear such a spectacular array of ridiculous costumes in order to give ageing a kick up the bum. Like The Mighty Boosh meets the W.I.
What’s the show that you don’t want to miss at this year’s Brighton Fringe (apart from your own)?
The Room in the Elephant
What’s the best bit of advice you’ve ever been given for performing at a Fringe Festival?
Don’t do it. At your age. Really. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
If your show was a flavour of ice cream being sold on Brighton Pier, what would it be?
Steradent and Popping Candy.
