Scotsman reviews OFI50

Edinburgh Festival Fringe: Richard is 50 and happy, a husband and a dad. The show is a big friendly roly-poly of memories and anecdotes and it is lovely.

Pleasance Courtyard (Venue 33)

Just occasionally, lest we mistake him for Peter Kay, he helpfully differentiates the two by adding a graphic reference of a maternal nature to his whimsy. We get tales of a bad boy past and stories of a sometimes physiologically disappointing present. There is a bittersweet bluetooth story, a cautionary tale of an altercation with a postman and many of Richard’s worries about old age.
