Key (jaded;handsome) brings his award-winning lurid-as-hell poetical shitstorm back to Scotland for a strictly limited run designed to keep him alive as a presence in Edinburgh. Key (repugnant; studious) is the scaven poet-figure from Newswipe and isn’t getting any younger. The show is a grimy confusion of poetry, clambering and refrigeration. Key (gallant; flawed) is trying to engage his longtime technician Fletch (gigantic glasses; good value) to wiggle his nobs.
“This show has a kind of artistry and strange beauty that make it unlike any other hour of stand-up you are likely to see.”
