 "Being a cougar (dating
younger men) isn't easy but someone's got to do it. Might as well be me." -
Sandra Risser
After performing to
sell out crowds in San Francisco and
having a successful run at the Brighton Fringe Festival, this self proclaimed slut brings
her side-splitting humor about being a cougar (dating younger men), life, sex and living
in the fast lane to Edinburgh. Before the show ends, she'll answer any questions you ask:
- When did you loose
your virginity?
- Do you smoke pot?
- What's the down
side to being a cougar?
- When's a man too
small?
- How would you
change the world?
"...you made my night.
I'd been to a hugely hyped, sold out show before yours (that promised much and delivered
little) that depressed me as it was lousy, unimaginative and repetitive and treated the
audience with contempt.
We left depressed by its
commercial cynicism and were in dire need of cheering up so wandered into your show on the
off chance and you were instantly welcoming and we laughed all the time and left feeling
delighted, cherished and having seen someone original, honest and funny." - Eric Page
reviewer for Gscene Magazine, Brighton Fringe Festival '10

The two faces of
Sandra Risser -Theatre and Comedy
The hardest working gal at the
Fringe!!!! At 69 years of age Sandra's not slowing down. She's brought her two critically
acclaimed one woman shows - a drama (Amy, Fate and Me) and stand-up comedy (American
Cougar Of Comedy) - to the Edinburgh Free Fringe Festival. (http://sandrarisser.com/edinburgh)
Those who see both shows will notice the link between her self deprecating
humor and the "lost" woman in her play.
"Like a fine red wine I just get better and
better until the day I turn to vinegar." - Sandra Risser |
