The Edinburgh Fringe One-Weeker 2017 – Jess Robinson: Unravelled, 23rd August 2017

I am sure the next show will be both a musical and comedy highlight of the week. It’s Jess Robinson: Unravelled, at the Udderbelly @ Underbelly, George Square, at 19:00 on Wednesday 23rd. Here’s the blurb: “Multi award-winning Jess Robinson returns with more spot-on celebrity impressions, musical comedy and stunning vocal gymnastics. Like a wonderfully malfunctioning jukebox, Jess and her incredible band take you on a dizzying journey through hilarious improvised musical mash-ups, serving a feast of styles and genres from Billie Holiday and Liza Minnelli to Iggy Azalea, Beyoncé and Kate Bush. ‘No matter what your tastes this Fringe… Robinson will entertain them all’ ***** (Edinburgh Festivals Magazine). Arts Award Voice Award 2015/16, Amused Moose Peoples Champion Award 2015, Mervyn Stutter – Pick of the Fringe Award 2015, Chortle Award nominee 2014.”

We’ve been meaning to catch Jess Robinson’s solo shows ever since we saw her in Hamlet the Musical – where she was a scream. Check back around 8.30 pm to see how brilliant she was. By then the next preview blog should be available to read too.

Jess is a brilliant impressionist and a superb singer, and it was a great fun show. Guess who sat in the front row and ended up participating in an Angel delight eating contest, and losing… But then Jess sang me a love song which was hilarious. Great fun… Now to chuck up some Angel delight.
