The Edinburgh Fringe One-Weeker 2017 – Club Sol Party, 20th August 2017

We had Party Game this afternoon, and Abigail’s Party earlier on; for our final show today, it’s yet another party with Club Sol Party, at Maggie’s Chamber @ Laughing Horse @ The Free Sisters at 00:15 on the night of Sunday 20th. Here’s the official blurb: “The best holiday of your life! Club Sol will transport you to sunny Spain for an evening of comedy cabaret that you will never forget! Your holiday reps, The Mauve Coats, will present to you a host of guest acts picked from the cream of the Fringe’s comic crop as they also deal with the ups and downs of running the Costa’s number one holiday resort. Part cabaret, part sketch comedy, part immersive experience. Prepare for the holiday of a life time as Club Sol brings to you the best night out at this year’s Fringe.”

As soon as I read this description I knew this show was for me. Hi de Hi meets Opportunity Knocks? I’m hoping for an uproariously funny framework presenting a typical late night Fringe revue show. Check back around 1.15am to find out what happened. By then the first preview blog for Monday should be available to read too.

I really enjoyed the trashy holiday vibe for this show. The reps take us through lots of silly games – i blew up a pink flamingo  – and gave my romantic advice for a chat up line for rep Trevor to get it on with Cynthia. Mentalist Ben Dali and comic Natalie Allison were the enjoyable guest artists. Excellent late night fun.
