Lucy Porter: The Good Life Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2006
Lucy Porter: The Good Life

Lucy Porter is the friendliest, warmest comedian at the Edinburgh Festival and is delightfully funny. Her comedy is charming yet corrupt. She can be very sweet on stage and then say something quite sick and get away with it.

Richard Gill, August 2006


By far the best show I've seen at this year's Fringe. Agree wholeheartedly with Steve's review, although the Wednesday 9th show was topped off by the guy in the audience who Lucy referred to as her "bitch" happened to work in advertising for Mars, which was revealed late in the show and generated the biggest laugh of the night - anyone who's seen the show would realise why. For me, it was as close to perfect as any show I've yet seen. Perfectly paced and pitched to the audience with whom the banter was smooth and clever. Lucy showed excellent timing, as you'd expect from such a polished performer. I'd wanted to see Lucy for a couple of years and missed a show in Newcastle earlier this year. My mate loved the show too, even though I thought I might have oversold it before hand...it's good when you've got high expectations and they're exceeded. I was planning to catch another show this afternoon before I caught the train home, but decided to leave it as it wasn't posible to top this one.
