Using both a computer and a projector to make the phenomenal show, David’s unique mix of music, video, animation & comedy is unlike anything you’ve ever seen at the Fringe or indeed anywhere else. His unique performance defies categorization – it simply commands edge of the seat engagement and awestruck laughter from everyone in the room.
