| News and Reviews for this Show 
| July 6, 2026 Immersive Rumours | | Edinburgh Fringe's Best Immersive and Interactive Shows | | Alistair Aitcheson's solo clown show, My Date with Pierce Brosnan, sees the open-hearted Mademoiselle Cafetière looking for love opposite a dummy of the one-time James Bond. As an interactive piece, My Date.. relies heavily on audience input to help build everything from the date's location and Cafetière's dating profile, to what Brosnan says during their one-on-one encounter via text-to-speech.As you'd expect, giving an audience free rein to steer the show results in countless left-field suggestions being incorporated into the show, but Aitcheson's commitment to the bit means this hour-long show is packed full of laughs regardless of what comes out of Brosnan's mouth.
