Top Comedy Shows In The Brighton Fringe

Top Comedy Shows In The Brighton Fringe
Published 4th Apr 2009 by Brighton Festival Fringe

There's a lot of laughs in the Fringe this year - from performances from big name stand-ups to sketch shows, improvised comedy and a whole lot in between. Here's our pick of some of the comedy in the Fringe this year.

The Fringe featured comedy show

 Gina Yashere at The Parlure Spiegeltent

A one-off show from the award-winning comic and star of Mock the Week - Gina Yashere returns to the UK to deliver her refreshingly ballsy and honest stand-up.

Since her remarkable Edinburgh debut in 1995, she has taken on UK TV, including her own chat show, Up Late with Gina Yashere, and then taken on the UK with Def Comedy Jam, as well as numerous sell-out tours. This woman is an unstoppable force.

"One of the best comics in the land" - The Guardian
