Description
Alex Mason and Freya McGhee will be showcasing mathematical graphs of their love life, then delving into their funny frustrations with lab experiments, all while ensuring a chemical bond with the audience. Join us for this science-themed stand-up comedy show so we can keep denying that our degrees weren't a complete waste of money. 'Freya is one of those acts that whenever I'm on the bill with her, it's like 'OH HELL YES!' She is so funny it's actually annoying!' (Helen Bauer). 'An infectious sense of fun' (Chortle.co.uk).Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

Amazing show, would have been perfect if Freya left her number on the slide a touch longer

Alex and Freya are full of energy and are a delight to watch. Never have I enjoyed feeling so under-educated in an audience of very smart people before.
