AJ Bell’s Fringe on Friday: In Support of The Edinburgh Fringe: Online: 2020
In August 2020, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe should have been taking place for three and half weeks. Because of the Coronavirus epidemic, the Fringe was cancelled for the first time in its seventy-three-year history and the creative arts industry, including comedians, suffered badly as a result. Undeterred, the Edfringe website featured several projects to provide support for Fringe acts and to keep the spirit of the Fringe alive. One such project throughout August was Fringe on Friday – an online show featuring Fringe acts and sponsored by innovative investment platforms and stockbroker, AJ Bell.
Comedian, actor, and cool dude Travis Jay appeared for the Fringe on Friday online show that I watched in August 2020. He was extremely confident in his delivery of funny lines talking about finding himself during lockdown, road rage and the ambience of toughness.
