A Fringe Quickie (#207) with ‘Armageddon Outta Here’

Questions answered by Tom Johnson.

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

Driving from Southend to Edinburgh in my 1989 Reliant Rialto.

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

A pint of bitter in a half-pint glass, with a slice of pork pie on the rim.

Q3: The Fringe is horribly expensive. How are you financing this run? Did you remortgage your house, sell your granny, or start an illicit side hustle?

Using my Nan’s disability benefit. The stair lift can wait until September.

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

As that new-wave guerrilla feminist group that absolutely reeked of sick.
