At the start of his show Craine asked native Edinburgh residents to make themselves known. He mentioned that he had only had eight in all of his previous shows. Tonight (Saturday night) about 15 put their hands up. I've no idea why he asked, but he seemed a bit rushed and after a short 50 minute show he ran off at the end as if he was being chased.
I enjoyed the show. Craine's is a gentle humour as you might expect from an ex-choirboy, but maybe it didn't suit the Saturday night crowd that is different in character to a mid week audience.
As he explains, the addiction in the show title was nothing too shocking, just a student addiction to weed. The show is a confessional so familiar to the fringe. I recommend this if you like relaxing and friendly humour, but there are few belly laughs.
