BRIGHTON FRINGE PREVIEW: Mediocre as F*&k by Gavin Lind
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the most mediocre of all? In his 2016 Edinburgh Festival Fringe show, Gavin shared the story of his struggle to accept the reality of his own mediocrity. Now he’s back and more mediocre than ever.
Mirror, mirror on the wall, who is the most mediocre of all?
In his 2016 Edinburgh Festival Fringe show, Gavin shared the story of his struggle to accept the reality of his own mediocrity. Now he’s back and more mediocre than ever.
Now that he is committed, his quest to embrace mediocrity scales new heights. In this show he explores more of life’s inescapable clichés, as well as the many quirks and contrarieties of human nature. He looks into the absurdity of privilege with tales of the good, the bad and (especially) the ugly, in his unique dark philosophical way.
Gavin knows he is not special anymore, and can’t grasp that others still think that they are. In fact it annoys him so badly that he thought about turning straight.
But here is: still gay, still married, still middle-aged. Standing head and shoulders among the rest, he is mediocre as f*&k.
“Mediocrity has never been this funny.”
