Show 23: Foil, Arms and Hog: Oink

Another year, another show from Fringe regulars Foil Arms and Hog.

An experienced, slick set of performers, they bring more mad antics and sketches with the audience. Memorable highlights include the class on helping those with regional accents start speaking received pronunciation (it's a showcase of exaggerated accents - the Cork accent is a particular delight), a game of Twister between a gorilla and a lanky audience member for one game and a muscular wrestler in another, and an actor performing a scene with a terrible robot (it's quite the sight seeing a man dribbling and moving stiffly while carrying two power drills).

A great laugh and a thoroughly entertaining hour. I'll be sure to see them again in years to come.

Venue: Udderbelly, George Square Gardens
Dates: 25th-28th August
