Face Oddity’s Fergus Head and Michael Zwiauer on This Isn’t Working

This week’s guests were Fergus Head and Michael Zwiauer from Face Oddity, who are about to take their latest show This Isn’t Working to Edinburgh in August, with a quick stop off at Canal Cafe on 29 July before that.

We caught up with the pair to discuss the show, how they manage to put it all together when you’ve got a team of writers all bringing ideas to the table, and why sketch shows should really be more common at the theatre.

This Isn’t Working plays Canal Cafe 29 July – more info ⁠here⁠ before moving to Edinburgh 4 – 19 August – more info ⁠here⁠.

This Isn’t Working

Can he rely on the crack team at the job centre to solve his unemployment woes? FaceOddity return for another hour of their finest sketch comedy.

Plays Greenside @ Infirmary Street for EdFringe between 4 and 19 August. Further information and bookings can be found here.
