EDINBURGH 2016 - Review: YETI'S DEMON DIVE BAR, Pleasance Courtyard, 7 August
This show is from the team that brought you East End Cabaret, but Yeti's Demon Dive Bar features all new characters. Set in a bar with various acts, our entertainers for the evening consist of disgruntled singing nuns, conjoined twins, disembodied heads and of course, yetis.
Reminiscent of The Mighty Boosh, this is an hour of completely bonkers comedy. Some characters are funnier than others, but they all manage to hit the mark.
The audience participation is not for the fainthearted. No one is ridiculed, but if that yeti wants to touch you - it is going to touch you. There is no such thing as a "safe seat" in this room as she isn't afraid to crawl over the seats to reach you.
My only issue with Yeti's Demon Dive Bar is that I would have liked more songs. Clever, witty and technically brilliant music is what these two do best and it was the only thing I felt this performance was lacking.
Yeti's Demon Dive Bar runs at the Pleasance Courtyard until 29 August.
