Poltergeist - Charlie Vero-Martin

"I've taken four solo shows to the Edinburgh Fringe previously, which have all been multi-character shows, and slowly throughout, the very first show I did was just all characters, and then second, third, fourth, I started more and more each time being a bit more myself in the show. and it's interesting because a lot of the time, especially after my last show in 23, a lot of the sort of industry feedback I was kind of getting was like, we loved it, it was great, but sketch is dead. so maybe you should work on like a one-woman play or a one-woman show and I thought, I don't know about that.

Of course now though that I'm telling everyone I'm doing stand-up, they're like, but sketch is coming back.”

This episode is with Charlie Vero-Martin who is at Fringe this year with her work in progress stand-up show Poltergeist

We talk about deciding to take a stand-up show to Fringe after previous years with character comedy shows, the resurgence of sketch comedy, her workshops and other writing experience.
