Episode description

“ I think there's generally like one or two people who win the Fringe every year and everyone else just has a time ranging from OK to heart breaking, our Fringe experiences as Hot Death Theatre have sort of sat more in the heart breaking camp.  Whereas our experiences with almost every other Fringe we've done have been quite uplifting”

I spoke with Freya and Lawrence of Hot Death Theatre about their shows b i r d and Powersuit, we talk about the different atmospheres for various fringes and festivals around UK and Europe as well as how despite being based in Glasgow the Edinburgh Fringe is not for them as things stand.

We also discuss the differences in alternative comedy versus more mainstream comedy as well as the value of bringing physicality to any kind of comedy.
