The 2011 Foster’s Edinburgh Comedy Award Winners on the same show

Adam Riches

2011 Foster’s Best Comedy Show winner Adam Riches & Foster’s Best Newcomer Humphrey Ker

Over 500 eligible shows were seen by the judging panel. Adam Riches and Humphrey Ker were crowned as the best shows at this year’s Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Don’t miss your one and only opportunity to see this award winning double bill.

Adam Riches’ breathtakingly funny award winning show Bring Me The Head of Adam Riches is a mix of character comedy, anarchic stagecraft and a fearless level of audience engagement.

Humphrey Ker’s debut show Dymock Watson: Nazi Smasher! was a sell out hit receiving a plethora of rave reviews. It’s a very tall tale involving double agents, murderous mayhem and glorious incompetence.

‘A tear-inducingly funny piece of work’

*****
The Daily Telegraph (on Adam Riches)

‘60 minutes of brilliantly conceived chaos and I never stopped laughing once’

*****
The Independent (on Adam Riches)

‘Gag-a-line funny show spoofing – and obliquely celebrating – Second World War derring-do from a star-in-the-making’

*****
Daily Telegraph (on Humphrey Ker)

‘Hilarious…and at times pretty magical’

****
The Times (on Humphrey Ker)
