Show 6: Thom Tuck: An August Institution

Thom Tuck's been performing at the Fringe for 16 years, and he's brought another show up. However, it's fair to say that this show probably hasn't had the same level of thought or planning as his Best Newcomer nominated show 'Straight to DVD'.

It's a rather haphazard show filled with silliness, jibes at religion, and Thom slowly undressing and being made to look pretty with badly applied make up from various audience members.

It's a fun galavant around many mad ideas for sure, and he never promised any coherence at the start. Not a bad way to spend an hour certainly, and it was quite a spectacle to watch an experienced performer seemingly run the show on the fly. Nevertheless, it could certainly do with some more planning.
