Lazy Susan are performing Forgive Me, Mother! at the Assembly: The Box during August.
- What is your Fringe show about?
Mothers, fear, retribution. Ya know, the stuff girls talk about!
- How many times/many years have you appeared at the Fringe?
We’ve been up three times with our own shows and we also once made the mistake of doing ‘a play’.
- What’s your most memorable moment from the Fringe?
Probably gotta be the time we heard our entrance music playing and we were not in the venue.
- What’s the worst thing about the Fringe?
There’s nowhere to have a proper dance. Honestly it’s really tough.
- If you were not performers what would you be doing?
Enjoying a disposable income? Sorry - shot straight from the hip with that one.
- How do you prepare for a performance?
We always say ‘got your back’ to each other, often in a state of delirium after all our pre-show poos. I’m afraid this is simply the truth.
- Favourite thing about being in Edinburgh?
Just seeing people do their shows and try their best.
- What’s the most Scottish thing you’ve ever done?
Nothing particularly strenuous. We always bust out a few ‘cheers pals’ when we’re in Edinburgh and feel self-conscious about it.
- Favourite Scottish food/drink?
We are extremely regular clients of the crepe wagon in Bristo Square does this count?
- Sum up your show in three words
Fun plus danger

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
