You can learn Italian! You can enjoy the TV show 'Friends!' But you can't do both! And also you can't do either!

“I think this is now where the heart and love of cinema really is,” Conlon says. “The multiplexes and the big chains do what they do – but I think, for the people working in it and for people going, the best experience today is with community cinemas.”

I'm going on tour in 2026! Come and see me doing one of the best reviewed shows from the Ed Fringe (according to the British Comedy Guide). It's called King of Crumbs, and it's a load of old nonsense, really. Book now!

Very rare to be in a P&I screening where as soon as the credits rolled, no one moved. Powerful and harrowing that left me angry and in a flood of tears afterwards. Nothing will prepare you for this. A necessary watch that will undoubtedly linger with me for a long time. #TheVoiceofHindRajab #LFF
Now seated for film 18 of #LFF. Got the tissues ready. Now watching #TheVoiceofHindRajab

The Hayseed Knight is a fully voice acted and animated visual novel about a whole kingdom who wants to kiss the protagonist, Ader, in the mouth. As we join the titular knight in his adventures, we come to empathize with the feeling.

One year ago today!

This script is still being shopped around, so if there are any U.K. tv producers interested in reading my award winning pilot script for this London based, contemporary comedy drama (comps: This Way Up, Trying, Catastrophe, Shrinking, Fleabag) then get in touch.

Amazing to visit Busan International Film Festival!

If you infer from this post that we actually had a film screening there, then that's on you...

If you love and/or hate the fringe, Ian has written an interesting deep-dive into a playing field so un-level it's almost a wall.
Wrote a very long article on Medium about the Edinburgh Fringe, and the connection between how much money a comedian spends on their festival venue and how likely they are to get a review from a few different publications:

Heads up: Saturday tickets are now officially SOLD OUT!

Some might go back on sale through refunds, but no promises can be made on that.

We still have Sunday/weekend tickets (+ concession tickets) available, but best to hurry if you want to be certain you'll get yours! adventurexpo.org
