Following on from news my & Aaron Levene’s long running compilation show, Jew-O-Rama, was being cancelled by Whistlebinkies due to concerns over “staff safety”, yesterday I learnt that my solo show, Shall I Compere Thee in a Funny Way? was being dropped by Banshee Labyrinth.

There’s barely anyone left.
At this rate I wouldn’t be surprised if the Chief Rabbi of the United Synagogues also defected to Reform!

Dear @TLRailUK, if a whole load of your trains are cancelled then why not have the fast trains call at all stations to mitigate some of the delays for most of your passengers?!? Can’t for the life of me think why this isn’t just the norm … apart from not having delays of course!

Well this app is just a cesspit! Lots of anonymous trolling and very little actual positive engagement.
Join me Instagram.com/PhilipsComedy for more comedy content, satirical nonsense and general tomfoolery!

Here’s the start of an audience review someone left for a comp show I took part in. Something tells me they weren’t about to critique my set so much as my presence @ the gig!
This has already been 1 of the shittiest Fringes but hate won’t win!

Went into a local Edinburgh business and asked if I could put a poster up for my shows. They asked if it was “for profit” and boy, did we laugh!
Also, I’m somehow featured in the Financial Times, so this has definitely been my weirdest Fringe ever!

Thanks to @TheFreeFringe for offering us the space, and here’s to a great night of Jewish (and Jew-ISH) comedy @EdFringe!
If you can’t make it but would like to support the artists, here’s how you can buy one or more “Sorry I Can’t Be There” tickets:

I’m beyond delighted to announce that my previously cancelled solo show, 'Shall I Compere Thee in a Funny Way?’, has been given a new lease of life at this year’s @EdFringe.

Obviously I’m now massively behind on all the marketing, and need to get more flyers printed and distributed, so please let social media and word of mouth do its thing and share this news to let people know where they can find me in Edinburgh.

I am also still hopeful that we will be able to put on a run of ad-hoc Jew-O-Ramas to provide extra gigs for some of the acts who lost work from that cancellation. It turns out that rebooking an entire compilation show at the last minute isn’t an easy task!

We really enjoyed having Shall I Compere Thee In A Funny Way? at @buxtonfringe, and working with @PhilipsComedy in general - would recommend the show to any @edfringe venue. And if you have children, his School's Out Comedy Club show is fantastic. Hope to have you back next year!
