Cast: Sam Hind, Edward Jones, Michael Clarke, Josie Dale Jones, Ali Dunk, Lucy Menghan, James Gould.

Every so often life presents itself to the everyday person without is guise of normality and shows itself for the most perfect manifestation of the absurd you could ever hope to meet. It is that rare honour of seeing something so magnificent, so uncontrollably bizarre that you cannot help but love every single second of its company. Even in dreams the absurd holds court and sway over the minds of the deserving and for The Dream Sequentialists, absurd is second nature and it is a state of being that will have any audience member beaming as they leave the theatre.

There are no monsters under the bed, there are none hiding in the closets, but as the University College London Union Runaground Theatre Company are wonderfully adept at showing, Monsters are still very real and are able to take root in the very heart of all if allowed.

Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre, Comedy Review. The Gilded Balloon, Edinburgh. Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

It’s more than likely anyone coming across the Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre whilst at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival will have never had so much fun in their entire lives with something that covers up the least attractive aspect of a person’s appearance, their feet. For socks, whether dirty, clean, innocuous, outlandish or all together mystifying, socks are great things, especially when they come in pairs and deliver unbelievably great satire and beautifully delivered cringe worthy puns.

Patrick Monahan, Comedy Review. The Gilded Balloon, Edinburgh. Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 8.5/10

There are comedians who make you laugh, those wise masters who can make you think and those coveted people who you can find empathy and warmth within. To find someone who can control all three mystifying forces of human nature is to behold someone you can believe in and share life and a shred of existence with.
