John Robertson's DOMINANT Set for Edinburgh Fringe
More wild stand-up from the Cardinal of Chaos, the Ayatollah of Abuse, the Duke of Puke: Mr John Robertson.
Anarchic, spontaneous and loud, this year 'Dominant' sees John Robertson on a one-man mission to open our minds, our hearts and our le...
In his seventh year at the Fringe, the Australian wild man and insult comic unleashes 60 minutes of whatever comes into his head.
Every day John creates a show that's just for that audience, on that day.
It's a wild party, just for them, and their failings.
And their hopes. And their dreams.
And he doesn't do anything stupid, like get them onstage.
Improvised, freewheeling and supremely well-dressed, John plays with the audience for an hour. And then stops.
All conventions of performance are deconstructed.
His sex life is mentioned.
Soon that hour has passed and everyone has been beaten into submission and happiness.
Plus maybe five jokes.
Expect talk of BDSM, S/D and a whole host of other kink acronyms, brought to you by Australia's finest comic maniac.
Audiences are invited to sit back and enjoy a performance of GREAT WILDNESS. In a SUIT. And the FOUR-AND-A-HALF INCH STILETTO HEELS that John has bought himself. John's got himself some GIRL'S SHOES. Is that about feminism? Is it about transgender issues? Is it an attempt to make his style of wild clowning seem more sympathetic (he can't walk in heels, fracture incoming)? Does he just like the shoes?
Tickets can be purchased here.
