Managed to catch two more shows in the Fringe before it finished.
The first one was Camille O'Sullivan's latest show - while I enjoyed it, I didn't enjoy it as much as I have the previous times that I have seen her. Not sure why - it may have been the choice of the songs in this show, but more likely it was due to the size of the venue. Previously I have seen Camille perform at the Spiegletent, but this performance was in the Chuch of Scotland Assembly Hall - it is quite a large venue, and seemed to lack the intimacy that the Spiegletent has. Bought the latest cd and dvd after the show.
The second show was Dead Men Tell a Thousand Tales by Mikelangelo and the Black Sea Gentlemen. This was a brilliant show - a group of Australians who pretend that they are cabaret artists from the Balkan states who perform songs about death, sex and love (sometimes all in the one song). The frontman (Mikelangelo - the Bull of the Baalkans, the Nightingale of the Adriatic) has a great stage presence. Bought two cd's at the gig.
