Erich's debut hour
The Pleasance, Ed Fringe 2012
American Erich McElroy is more British than you.
Not surprising really, he had to revise for it,
swear an oath and learn all the
verses of the national anthem.
He’s taken the biggest pub quiz going and won citizenship.
But is that enough?
Come and share this hour of comedy about discovering
what it takes to become British, other than the relevant documentation.
Afterwards if you still don't think Erich is British and wish to complain - join the queue. You'll enjoy that.
