Description
A surreal, multimedia comedy odyssey from autistic, non-binary comedian Andrew Frank. Weaving together autobiographical stand-up, satirical sermons, puppetry, interviews, heartfelt monologues, home movies, travelogue video essays and original music, Frank traces their personal evolution from childhood in a fundamentalist Christian church to life as a queer performing artist. Named one of the Best Undiscovered Comedians in America by Thrillist Magazine, Frank's thoughtful and ecstatically funny jokes will be sure to captivate stand-up enthusiasts, aspiring comedians, lifelong artists, queer and neurodivergent folks, and anyone healing their own religious trauma through play, laughter, and collective joy.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.

Fab, really funny show! I really enjoyed the switching between jokes and monologues, and the way Andrew paints such ridiculous and funny pictures with their stories, definitely recommend!

A unique voice takes you on a journey of self exploration and identity. A moving personal story about healing and the importance of laughter. Through some deeply personal anekdotes Andrew invites you to have a look into their (often ridiculous) childhood. Entertaining as hell! (pun intended)
