This year, the biggest arts festival in the world is on hold. But this programme captures the spirit of Edinburgh and brings highlights of new shows and events from the Fringe, the Book Festival and the International Festival, which are happening within the limits of the Covid lockdown. Presented by Kiri Pritchard-McLean and Lolly Adefope, it tells stories of how creatives have worked under lockdown and managed to create shows to entertain us.
The first thing that gig-less comedians did after lockdown was put live shows online. The second was launch a podcast. But television hasn’t been far behind, using the format of quickfire, viral-friendly sketches filmed at home and observing social distancing. The BBC launches their rapid response series Comedians: Home Alone on BBC Two on June 1 at 10.15pm, but they have been pipped at the post by E4’s Remote Comedy From the Paddock.
E4 has launched a number of new digital commissions for Spring/Summer to run across All 4, YouTube and social media and a linear schedule.
The line-up will include a number of comedy shorts from the homes of your favourite comedians with Remote Comedy from The Paddock.
The four 15-minute shows, made by Blink Industries, will air on E4, YouTube and socials from 9pm on Tuesday 26th May.
Joanna Scanlan, Lolly Adefope, Pauline McLynn and Emma Kennedy are among the judges for The Comedy Women in Print Prize 2020 (CWIP), the UK’s only award celebrating witty women writers.
Katy Wix (Anna & Katy, The Windsors, Not Going Out) and Lolly Adefope (Miracle Workers, This Time with Alan Partridge) have joined the cast of upcoming new BBC One comedy Ghosts.
The six-part sitcom is created by the lead cast of writer-performers behind the award-winning Horrible Histories and Yonderland, and feature film Bill.
Following another triumphant month at the Edinburgh Fringe, production company Berk’s Nest has announced that they will be taking over a venue for a weekend of the Whyte & Mackay Glasgow International Comedy Festival. Across three days, March 22nd-24th, a massive seventeen shows will take place, including shows from Lolly Adefope, Desiree Burch, Colin Hoult as Anna Mann, Max & Ivan, Olga Koch, Tom Parry and Sindhu Vee. Tickets are available for all shows now.
A number of the comedians at Latitude use the gig as an opportunity to road-test their forthcoming Edinburgh Fringe material in front of a live audience. Maybe Lolly Adefope was planning to do that but she recently cancelled her Edinburgh run due to filming commitments in America. Adefope is extremely talented and clearly on the cusp of becoming a big star as her short greatest hits set confirmed.
Rising star Lolly Adefope has had to cancel her Edinburgh Fringe run this year after landing a role in a major new American TV series.
