What struck my first was Firdi’s face. It is both anonymous and one of a kind. He has a big flaring dolphin fin of a nose; small, deep-set eyes that sit in little pools of shade; a warm, gaptoothed smile. Then without warning, it begins. His offstage self-introduction showed an endearing nonchalance that coaxed the audience to let their guard down before a flurry of sharp witted blows left us either speechless from shock or laughter. Hands down the show of the Fringe 2025.
