Fringe 2009 - OOTS - Like A Virgin

"Porn is one of the few things you can actually unfurl."

Jimmy Hogg

Like A Virgin

The cheeky Englishman returns with his comedy about the trials of youth, love and loss (of virginity). Physical, fast-paced, hilarious storytelling with at least one dance routine and tangents within tangents.

Another returning favorite, relentless yet damn friendly self-promoter and comedic storyteller Jimmy Hogg is back again. And since he's regaled us with stories of his day jobs and life of crime (which landed him on my 2007 Top 20 list), it's only natural that his sex life should be next.

His preview snippet recounted the incident where he accidentally stumbled upon a stash of porn in the family garage as a young boy and immediately nipped off the woods to spend a little quality time alone with it.

If you saw it, or are familiar with Jimmy's work, you know it was damn funny. If not, well, it's high time you discovered what all the chuckling is about. And he's not just going it alone this Fringe. In addition to his solo show...

He's also teaming up with some local comedians of note...

His other show page - for "Hogg and the Humors" - sketch comedy blending Mr. Hogg, and his friends at Four Humors Theatre (aka, Artists Without Borders)

Go to one, better yet go to both, and you can kick back and have a lot of laughs on your Fringe journey this week.
