What the reviewers said

We have captured 2 published reviews and 11 audience reviews for this show from the Edinburgh Festival Fringe’s own listing. The excerpts below are the reviewers’ words, not ours — follow each link for the full review.

  • A chaotic, candid and frequently very funny hour from a comedian who clearly isn’t afraid to let the audience see how the sausage gets made

    A Youngish Perspectivee (4 out of 5 stars)

  • Ify’s debut Edinburgh Festival Fringe stand-up comedy show is simply called An Hour With Ify Nwadiwe. The comedian walks onto a stage with two microphone stands, two mics and two entirely different ideas for a show.
