A Fringe Quickie (#200) with ‘Justina Seselskaite: Settled’

Questions answered by Justina Seselskaite.

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’ve spent two years trying to get people to come to this show. By August I’ll be operating on the same marketing strategy as a pyramid scheme: everyone who sees it must recruit three friends.

Q2: Cancel culture has finally come for your show. What sins has it committed?

It has been accused of unauthorised optimism about immigration, excessive use of Eastern European stereotypes by an actual Eastern European.

Q3: If all the shows running right now were at a massive Fringe house party, what is your show doing?

Arriving with a supermarket own-brand bottle of vodka, making friends with everyone, then spending three hours trying to explain where Lithuania is using increasingly desperate hand gestures.

Q4: How will the audience remember you the morning after?

Like a friend who overshared in a pub beer garden: funny but you’re worried about me
