Beyond the Fringe was a British comedy stage revue written and performed by Peter Cook, Dudley Moore, Alan Bennett, and Jonathan Miller. It played in London's West End and then on New York's Broadway in the early 1960s, and is widely regarded as seminal to the rise of satire in 1960s Britain.

I remember laughing my socks off when it came to London some 55 years ago. Alas, it is no longer funny.

anybody hear what is being sung in the matthew mark luke and john bit of the Dickar sketch?

Political correctness today would never allow this type of satire. That shows beyond doubt that PC is nothing more than a gag on freedom of speech. The militant gays would be up in arms, darling, up in arms!!

I'd forgotten how talented these guys all were.

How fresh all this seems still. And how little has changed
-
thanks so much for freeing the British wit and let it go free-range. The Thai could use a bit, well quite a lot actually, of that.

I prefer a flan

Got drawn into this via an Eric Idle, John Cleese interview. Very cool to see what (in part) inspired and molded my heroes in Monty Python before there was a Monty Python. Just couldn't handle all the suits in the audience but I guess that was the fashion of the day...

EXPLICIT MUCK AND NAUGHTY INNUENDO
Little down from fart jokes. These cunts are revered and Benny Hill- who never swore but was hilarious- was frowned on. Gives me a hard-on. As Ken Dodd would say, barely tickled my chuckle stick. -
I thought it started at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

Wow!! Hadn't realized a whole show had been preserved on film!!

I saw this at the Fortune Theatre in London I forget the year but it's lovely to see it again.Before the performance the theatre manager told us that Princess Alice would be in the audience and when she came in they would play God Save the Queen and we were all to stand until she was seated.

great stuff

If you look at it at an angle you can see colour
-
In the pans of the audience I see amongst other people actors Michael Caine and Christopher Timothy( All Creatures Great and Small ).

Jonathan Miller will never be as funny as he thinks he is, Peter is quite the opposite
-
its in black& white because UK tv was in black&white in 1964

I saw this in London when I was living there in 1962 and found it brilliantly funny. I saw it again in New York City in 1963, had a aisle seat, and was laughing so hard that I was rolling on the floor at times. For it's time it was as good as it gets.

Is the plum in the mouth how this lot spoke in the first half of the '60s, or is it part of the comic effect?
