Wot? No Fish!!

Written and Performed by Danny Braverman
Directed by Nick Philippou

Premiering to critical acclaim at Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2013, bread&circuses’ one-man show takes audiences on a captivating journey spanning decades.

In 1926 shoemaker Ab Solomons drew on the wage-packet he gave to his wife Celie. Throughout their marriage, right up until the early eighties, Ab had drawn a wage-packet cartoon every week for her. These cartoons, with blistering honesty, through all their ups and downs, chronicled Solomons' family life.

Danny Braverman’s solo show tells the funny and moving story of how he discovered the lost art of his Great-uncle. Wot? No Fish!! is an extraordinary story about love and art, history… and catering.

Ab and Celie went on a journey along a road that went uphill both ways – but it was a journey they took together.
