A Fringe Quickie (#271) with ‘Only Bones – Daniel Nodder’

Questions answered by Daniel Nodder.

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’m gonna start slipping our flyers into all the Lunch Meal Deals at Tesco’s. That way, every cheapo in town will know what’s up.

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

Excessive slurpy mouth noises. Turning Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s “Shallow” into a singing kneecap duet. Problematic depiction of a brontosaurus.

Q3: 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?

A scale-model of The Large Hadron Collider, of course. For serious scientific clown business.

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

“a surprising amount of tongue action”
