Fringe 2016 Pierre Novellie Is Cool Peter, Pleasance Courtyard, 9.45Pm

Edinburgh Fringe 2016: Comedy Pierre Novellie is Cool Peter Pleasance Courtyard August 3 – 28 August (not 15) @ 9.45pm ‘Dawn of a major talent’ Guardian Is it cool to be depressed? Is it cool to have read an 800 year-old poem about magi- cal, vaginal ventriloquism, or to have to worried about more about elves than the op- posite (human) sex? Maybe. Finding that the rewards of Warhammer might not have been quite so worthwhile as he thought in his youth, Pierre Novellie picks his way through an equally perilous adulthood littered with rats and chicken bones - and that’s just the journey to the end of his street. That’s not cool. But then a dawning realisation that very little is helps Pierre start to feel good after all. Join comedy’s hottest new prospect on the road to some kind of salvation. Pierre Novellie is one of the best up-and-coming comedians in the United Kingdom. After appearing with the Footlights at Cambridge University, Pierre was nominated for the Amused Moose Comedy Award and Best Debutant for The Skinny Awards in 2013, the year in which he won the Amused Moose Laugh-Off. In 2014 he was nominated for Chortle’s Best Newcomer award. His 2015 Edinburgh show, Pierre Novellie is Anxious Peter, was received well by au- diences and critics alike, with The Scotsman, Chortle, The List and Broadway Baby (among others) all giving it 4 stars. Since then Pierre has since been nominated for Best Club Comic at the 2016 Chor- tle Awards, and is currently filming for Channel 4’s Comedy Blaps. He was also a recent guest on BBC Radio 4’s The Rest is History hosted by Frank Skinner. Other highlights include appearing on the‘Joke Thieves’ pilot for BBC Two opposite Marcus Brigstocke, BBC Three’s Edinburgh Comedy Fest Live and 4OD’s com- edy series Taxi Gags. Pierre’s writing credits include ITV’s Newszoids, Adam Bux- ton’s Shed of Christmas. Meanwhile, on the touring theatre circuit, Pierre has opened for Gary Delaney and Hal Cruttenden on their latest tours. ‘Slick and slightly offbeat… sometimes redolent of Eddie Izzard’ Chortle ‘Wry, confident observational comedy…well crafted, hilarious.’ The Sunday Times ‘An absolute pleasure to watch’ Broadway Baby Full Listing Title: Pierre Novellie is Cool Peter Venue: Pleasance This, The Pleasance Courtyard, 60 Pleasance, EH8 9TJ Tel: 0131 556 6550 Web: https://www.pleasance.co.uk/event/pierre-novellie-cool-peter#overview Dates: 3 - 28 August (not 15) Time: 9.45pm Age: 16+ Duration: 1 Hour Entry: £6 (3-5 August), £10 For images: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wg3qtty79cqjfqf/AADJeDKdx8igRgYQm- P0ggCc_a?dl=0 Pierre’s Website and Social Media: Twitter: @pierrenovellie Press & media contact: Julian Hall at Textual Healing PR 07810 486658 / [email protected] / @TextualHealing2.
