"Extravagantly mischievous persona... brilliantly crowd-pleasing act."


Chortle
Ada Campe and the Psychic Duck in 
The Guardian recommended shows of Edinburgh Fringe 2019:

"With her outlandish eye makeup, headdress and conspiratorial air, Ada Campe effortlessly draws her audience into her story. Though set in the 1980s, it’s an Edwardian-style tale of a troupe of variety performers including the mysterious Madame Canard and the duck of the title. Thanks to Campe’s dramatic delivery and enviable turn of phrase, it’s also very funny.

Created by Naomi Paxton, Campe employs her considerable charm to recruit audience members to aid her in her flights of fancy (one plays an escaped moose) and to join her in a concluding dance. It’s a world as convincing as it is amusing, both eccentric and deeply researched."
