Ever sat in a comedians show about falling in love and wanted to speed run through to the breakup? Sometimes it takes year to find out why it all went wrong. Married At First Wright is your chance to skip to the end and get to the good bits. Richard Wright returns to the Brighton Fringe with a brand-new show. No, a brand-new journey. Thats also a show. And you dont have to go anywhere, its all in the one venue. So, its a show. That will take you on a journey. Metaphorically. Hes received awards, moderate competition success, a good review at some point, praise from colleagues and positive attention from other peoples pets. Which isnt easy because he hasnt built a connection with them yet but they just really like him. In this new show Wright invites you to laugh at love. And other things. Possibly buffets. He wrote this in November before he wrote the show. There could be anything in it. Except face paint. Hes allergic.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Show me the charities

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.
