Chris Ramsey: Aggrophobic
Avalon Promotions Ltd.
Chris Ramsey is a grinning Geordie with a side fringe. While these are all individually irritating traits, together they form a fast-rising star. His show is based on the premise that he is terrified of aggression in all its forms, yet he exudes confidence and self-awareness reminiscent of the Russells Kane and Howard. He can be as uncomfortable as wearing a tracksuit to a wedding, but is never ineffective like prune juice in uncomfortable situations (all will be explained). He has his rambling moments, but he manages to steer his thought train back on course just before I start compiling a grocery list in my head. This is a very strong Fringe debut; that big grin could get him places.
Pleasance Courtyard, 4 - 30 Aug, 8.30pm (9.30pm), £5.00 - £9.50, fpp45
