Description
In Fat, Femme and Crippled, Alex drives their mobility scooter on the intersection between disability and queer culture. Using their experience as a non-verbal queer person to educate, captivate, but most of all titillate their audiences as they demonstrate that disabled people are just as filthy and capable of making the same bad life choices as everyone else. This performance is not one to miss. Expect to leave feeling both delighted and disgusted all at once.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.

Oh, Alex goes their... - and we were LOVING IT!
A hilarious snippet into Alex's life where, through tears of laughter, we are given a snippet of their life as a disabled, queer, non-verbal and autistic person navigating a world that is not yet considerate enough of these attributes! An excellent and refined piece of comedy that left our cheeks aching, our brains thinking, and our hearts full.
Thanks Alex, we will certainly be following you and your career moving forward, and hope to see you at Ed Fringe next year X

Absolutely hilarious! I went for free but donated at the end of the show because I had such a great time. 10/10 would see Alex again, they have great comedic timing and their visual expressiveness/delivery added a lot. A must-see for fans of of queer dirty jokes.
