Karen Dunbar 

Scotland’s own Queen of Comedy, that is if you don’t count Craig Hill, Karen Dunbar is back at the Fringe with her one woman show and is playing to packed out houses in the large Gilded Balloon Debating Hall. Ayr’s finest is back on song, literally at times, with an excellent hour of mirth and mayhem.

Playing to a predominately Scottish audience Ms Dunbar, prances, prowls, gags and tells hilarious stories of her past year and even going back to her childhood for some material.

She has strong opinions on numerous subjects and some crazy solutions to certain situations but all her set, and it is packed, is simply just funny, albeit with a very Scottish slant. I have commented before that although Scots and those like me who live here will get full benefit of her wit, others may miss out on some of her gems, and this years material is a bit like that, given her travelling this year maybe I was wrong. But what I am not wrong about is that this is an exceptionally talented lady with a huge future, and I can only look forward to seeing her next show.
