Questions answered by Amanda Verlaque.

Q1: If you could take just one record with you to survive the Fringe — your ultimate comfort, hype, or grounding track — what would it be, and why?

Nina Simone’s Feeling Good. An absolute cracker of a song that’s bursting with positivity. It’s got all the feels. My amazing wife Sarah and I chose it for our wedding day.

Q2: What’s the temperature of your show?

Today will see a high of homophobic-induced hellfire hot, but protection is available. Try a sunscreen with a Factor of 100% Equal Rights Now! This balm will help you sail comfortably through the day. Expect the evening to bring a welcome and soothing breeze of LGBTQIA+ cool.

Q3: What’s the moment in your show that makes people laugh when they’re not sure they’re supposed to?

“A short haircut and a pair of dungarees doth not a dyke make”.
