A Fringe Quickie (#39) with ‘Adam Flood: Life and Death of the Party’

Questions answered by Adam Flood.

Q1: Aside from this Quickie, what is the most desperate marketing tactic you plan on using to get bums in seats this August? 280 chars

Depriving people of some of their senses. I’ve been picked to host the decade long running cult show Comedy In The Dark, where the audience are plunged into pitch black darkness- whilst their senses are altered I will try and Derren-Brown my show into their psyche.

Q2: If your show walked into a cocktail bar, what would it order?

My show is set in race – so it would order a water cos it’s coming up, hard.

Q3: We all have weird pre-performance rituals. What is yours, and how confused would a normal person be if they walked in on you doing it?

I like to lunge and press myself flat against a wall near the stage. No idea when I started doing this or why, but whenever I don’t do it I feel rubbish.

Q4: If all the shows running right now were at a massive Fringe house party, what is your show doing?

My show is a comedy rave – standup performed over big beats. So the show at a jouse party is naturally gonna be DJing some big club bangers.
