Beyond A Joke Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2004
Beyond A Joke

A very confusing review. Perhaps not the most original show on the Fringe but undoubtedly one of the funniest I saw. The performers were charming and timed each section impeccably. A solid three or four star show.

Brian Malling, September 2004


What an unnecessarily scathing review! Even if some of the points made are valid, this show cannot conceivably be given less than three stars. This was some of the best comedy I saw at the festival: full of clever observations about life, people, and various instituitions... the cast were of an exceptionally high standard, with two or three especially captivating, and engaging members, and I didn't want the show to end.

Impressed, September 2004


By far the worst show on the Fringe. By far the worst show I have ever seen. Everyone in the audience agreed on the way out that it was as poor as it gets. This privileged fools should leave comedy well alone

Jim Cracknell, September 2004


I saw this in Edinburgh and was hugely disappointed. The show is for actors written by students and played by comedians. Surely this cannot be the best Cambridge has to offer. This was trading on the name stuff.

Ted, September 2004


A very long hour. Clinging to the 'Footlights' moniker, hoping to inspire a loyalty from the public who have moved on from white middle class Oxbridge undergrads.

Harry, September 2004


This is one of the worst written reviews I have ever read How can this man be questioning the strength of a show's writing when he can't even construct a proper sentence? I saw this show and the performers came across as likeable, funny, intelligent and very talented. I am sure these five people will go far.
