Pleasance courtyard was a good place for a base, a drink, to relax and regroup (and also meet some of the performers). Big ticket shows always seemed more trouble than they are worth but there are always a number of talk show style or greatest hits shows at either end of the day (i.e. late at night or morning) which may give you a surprise star. Also dip into the film or theatre lectures for a break from the stand up, can be verty interesting. I did nothing but eat, drink and shows. Cost a fortune but was fantastic......envy you going.
