What the reviewers said

We have captured 4 published 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.

  • The A to Z Of Me is mainly a vehicle for Tom Read Wilson’s talents- of which he has many. There’s some gorgeous singing, tap dancing, monologue delivery and comedy.

    Broadway World (4 out of 5 stars)

  • A journey through one man’s world via the alphabet. Meticulously crafted, well-paced and without filler, Tom Read Wilson is not afraid to add a poignancy and wistfulness amongst the humour.

    Edinburgh Reviews (5 out of 5 stars)

  • Being entertained by Tom Read Wilson is simply delightful, and this hour proves he’s far more than the persona you’ve seen on television. 5 Stars
