Questions answered by Aaron O’Neill.
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
I blurted out details of the show to the comedian Stewart Lee at a post-show signing in my hometown. 50+ people in the queue behind me. He cannot come. Though to his credit, he seemed like he might have done. May the potential energy of his bum fuel many more seats to come.
Q2: If your show walked into a cocktail bar, what would it order?
Just a cracked egg fucked into a tall glass, with an accoutrement of birdseeds floating on top. It would be called “Pigeon’s Regret”.
Q3: All shows will have their tough days. What sophisticated self-care strategies will you employ to survive?
I recently invested in one of those portable gaming emulators from China. My mental wellness greatly depends on my ability to replay the same 20 year-old games over and over again, chasing a childhood thrill that will never fully be recaptured.
Q4: If your show suddenly developed a massive ego and became the biggest diva in the 2026 Fringe, what absurd, hyper-specific item would be mandatory on its dressing room rider?
The bullet that killed JFK, mixed into a bowl of birdseed, and flavoured like the bullet that killed RFK.
