Rebus McTaggart - FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS at the Edinburgh Fringe 2009

This brilliant character comedy introducesEcclefechan’s top cop Inspector Rebus McTaggart. The sell-out hit of the 2006 & 2007 fringes returns for 10 shows only.

This brilliantly observed character is particularly proud of his recent promotion to the dizzy heights of Joint Deputy Temporary Head Community Support Liaison Officer. It’s an important job…

With a wannabe Columbo as its star, the show reveals Thomson’s impressive range as a character comedian, from stand-up style audience interaction as Rebus and a song-and-dance routine in the bearded guise of Evangelos, to the brilliant physical comedy when doing his wordless turn as the police hound.

'It's a tight, punchy script penned and performed by Thomson. Never dropping a line or missing a trick, the incredibly quick-witted and adaptable Thomson deserves to become a big hit.' **** Metro
