Lucy Frederick : Even More Naked, Underbelly Bristo Square, Edinburgh Fringe

Looking back at the time when she was a participant in TV reality show "How to Look Good Naked", Frederick is still taking life lessons from her short moment of nationwide fame.  She describes how the show worked, how it worked on her as someone who feels a powerful need to be liked, and what it now means to her - apart from giving her material for this show.

Using this platform Frederick, who says she's 'wonky' and 'broken' emotionally and mentally, explores the way society reacts to poor mental health and how hard it is to break those perceptions.  There's a smart analogy about wearing a suit of armour to the beach about her inability to reveal herself and enjoy life.  She might not be physically naked this time, but she's got the courage to reveal far more of herself inside.

If it does feel a bit like a self therapy session at times, but that might be no bad thing for it clearly resonated with several people in the audience.  She builds the tension towards the end, but lets the audience down gently.  This isn't the harrowing experience it could be, and there's plenty of laughter, with Frederick able to see the funny side of her own obsessions.  That need to be liked is strongly evident in her comedy.

It might not break any new ground, but Even More Naked could be a reassuring show for those who also feel 'wonky'.

Lucy Frederick : Even More Naked is on in Underbelly Bristo Square at 14.50 until 26 August.
