Will Franken is an astounding character comedian who makes almost everyone else in his field
look like lazy chancers.

"He's possibly the only Fringe comic who can 'go there' parodying a conference for feminists without
getting called on it. . .he also has a range of uptight, middle Englanders at his disposal, almost
Alan Bennett-like in their characterisation. They're brilliantly acted. . .it's damn good comedy" ****
TV BOMB
"A meditation on the limits of tolerance and a powerful declaration of the primacy of freedom of
expression. . .rich and topical, opinionated yet artful, messy but with an underlying coherence, even
Franken momentarily losing his thread and confessing to bi-polarity can't undermine this startlingly
funny, memorable hour" ****
