Questions answered by Philip Catherwood.
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
Flashmob Gaelic Football match in the middle of Edinburgh! What’s Gaelic Football? HOW DARE YOU!!! Only the greatest sport of all time! Invented by the Irish, so of course it’s the best! We will be throwing the ball straight at you on the street, SO BE READY!!
Q2: If your show walked into a cocktail bar, what would it order?
Guinness. We’re an Irish show. Silly question. Of course that’s what we’re going to order! What do you mean you only do cocktails!? Baby Guinness then.
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 pile of Tayto Crisps, served on a golden platter, delivered my Mr. Tayto himself. Who’s Mr. Tayto? Come see our show and find out! It’s actually a biopic about him. Jokes, it’s not. Sorry to disappoint. Maybe next Fringe.
Q4: If all the shows running right now were at a massive Fringe house party, what is your show doing?
Out the back garden playing football. Breaking all the flower pots. Smashing all the windows. Chopping up all the grass. You’re welcome.
