The Scottish Falsetto Sock Puppet Theatre took their first comedy show to the Edinburgh Fringe in 2007. And they never stopped.

This exhaustive, and exhausting, diary by their creator and performer Kev F Sutherland takes you behind the scenes of writing, staging, promoting, performing, and recovering from the rigmarole of putting on an Edinburgh show.

Read all the reviews, rub shoulders with the celebrities, and read all the rather boring sales figures and the self-obsessed over-analysis of a lot of silly gags from the Socks' shows from 2009 to 2014. This is a vital book for anyone thinking of taking a show to Edinburgh, and for historians of comedy in the UK over the last two decades.

And if our Socks fans, god help you, you'll learn a little bit about what makes the boys tick.
