The Pre-Disposed
EDDIE IZZARD TO CLOSE THE RUN OF THE PRE-DISPOSED on Saturday 19 FREE!! to stay up to date how to be part of the audience follow @stopmyppms gonna be legendary!!
WHERE: VENUE 156 Banshee Labyrinth ~ Banqueting Hall
WHEN: August 12 - 19 inclusive
TIME: nightly 21:50 - 22.50
TICKETS: FREE (as per all shows in PBH's FREE FRINGE a bucket will be passed round after the show with all proceeds going to the www.stopmyppms.com fund please give generously... if he deserves it)
'The Pre-Disposed' will be a Live Storytelling Show that will go to the Edinburgh Fringe '17 as part of the PBH's Free Fringe.
The show will be 30 mins storytelling punctuated by a some underwhelming images which together will frame the story of a search for a diagnosis through comedy festivals in Barcelona and Madrid, Brazil's 2 Mega Events (World Cup & Olympics), Rio's only English language Night out, Rio Night Live and other comedy projects that involved the very biggest names in the comedy industry from Dylan Moran to Eddie Izzard.
In Edinburgh I will be inviting some of the comedians that punctuate the story to join me for a face to face 'podcast style' shooting of the shit under the theme of the Show title which came about as a correction by a Psychologist that it is politically incorrect to refer to PPMS, despite it's 'No Treatment, No Cure' reality as a 'Terminal Disease' :)
which I had done and was informed that I should use the more PC term, a Pre-Disposed illness!
The event will be free followed by a bucket with all proceeds going to www.stopmyppms.com

Each evening I will be joined by a different comedy legend who have mostly directly taken a part in the chronology of the story.
The idea is, we will just share the stage to discuss in terms of comedy whether 'the comic' is somehow Pre-Disposed to perform and can it be what defines the comedy style that we the public, all love so much.
In her 70th year all the comics that will take part are typical of those that makes the Edinburgh Fringe in her 70th year so great to keep coming back year after year…
This list of comics represent for me some of the coalface of Fringe innovation and I am truly honoured that they will join my humble amateurish performance.
If you are in Edinburgh, you could do worse than making some of these shows part of your festival plan... Check it out!!!
