Cookies, Fridges & Blundabuses - it must be Edinburgh Preview season again! (PART 3 of 3)

Welcome to Part 3 of our Edinburgh preview season round-up. We've already covered the extensive summer programmes from The Cookie and Leicester Fridge, but that's not all that's happening in Leicester this summer...

All partied out - Matt Forde

Bottle Rocket Comedy have just announced their preview shows, which are taking place, as always, upstairs at Firebug. There will be a couple of return visits by acts who are already previewing elsewhere in the city (ie, Bobby Mair, Alex Edelman & Nish Kumar), along with some political satire from Matt Forde and upfront social commentary from Imran Yusuf.

Welcome to part 2 of our 3-part Edinburgh Preview season round-up. We've already looked at the impressive line-up at The Cookie this year (if you missed that post, click here to read it).

Next, and making their preview season debut, is Leicester Fridge. They made a big splash at this year's DLCF with their extensive promotion of local acts and special showcase events, and now they're back with an ambitious five-day programme of shows across four venues.

"Ooh it comes around so quickly every year doesn't it?" is the kind of vacuous twaddle you hear dribbling out of people's sound-holes every time an annual event is looming. Well none of that here - Leicester Comedy Scene so enjoyed the last Edinburgh preview season that we're literally foaming at the mouth at the prospect of more Fringe previews, rendering us unable to utter even the most basic inane small talk. So here we go with the first of three posts detailing the various delights we can look forward to in Leicester during late June and July (which shall hitherto be referred to as 'preview season').
