Description
Comedy with a conservation twist. Biologist and comedian Simon Watt ('All the wit and passion of the best comedians' (Chortle)) is dedicated to raising the profile of some of Mother Nature's more aesthetically challenged children. The panda gets too much attention. He is joined by top comics who want to share their love of endangered, but hideous, species. We made the blob fish famous and are now building up to the first International Ugly Animal Day. Special guests will include Neil Delamere, Sophie Duker, Elf Lyons, Alasdair Beckett-King, George Egg and more.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.
