Hello! Tell us all about your show!

It’s 2026 and we are living in a new wild west where the old rules don’t apply. I’m sick of doing what I’m supposed to do- enter Moral Support. It is an electrifying rap manifesto for anyone who has had enough and wants to fight back. Saddle up and bring your whisky. I’m here to show you that the good guys were actually the bad girls all along.

What other acts are you looking forward to seeing at the fringe?

So many! I’ll just stick with one, otherwise I’ll list half of comedy, my top choice is Chelsea Birkby. She never misses and her new show is definitely one to watch.

Have you done the fringe before? What are the key pieces of advice you have been given or would give to new groups or people performing at the fringe. 

I did my debut hour last year and I am back for seconds. The best advice I have received is to see as many shows as possible and enjoy being a punter as much as a performer. 

I’m hardly a veteran but my other extra advice is take vitamins. My suggested cocktail is Iron, Fish Oil, Vitamin B and C, Magnesium, Creatine, Collagen, Lions Mane and Turmeric. Then you can party more. 

Talk us through your daily routine for a day at the Fringe

Sleep until the afternoon. Take your vitamins. Pack your bag and get out. Keep going until the morning. Repeat. 

Ok, where is your favourite place to eat at the Fringe? 

Have I missed something or is everywhere in Edinburgh quite mid? I don’t have somewhere that I think is fantastic but I am very, VERY open to recommendations. 

Best thing about performing at the fringe?

Getting to perform my own show every day. It’s the best thing ever. There’s nowhere else I’d rather be and nothing else I’d rather be doing. 

Do you bring anything special from home to make it feel more special whilst you are away?

Mouth tape is essential. You guys have got to get mouth tape. Let me tell you why. 1. Your throat doesn’t dry out which is essential at fringe. 2. Better quality sleep. 3. If you go to the toilet in the night it looks like you have been kidnapped and that’s a bit of fun. 

What are your best hacks to save money whilst at the Fringe?

Snake meal. One huge meal once a day. I often feel too nervous to eat before performing so snake meal is a necessity. 

If people want to find out more about you where can they follow you on social media?

I am ameliahamiltoncomedy everywhere. I did it. I cornered the whole market. 

And Finally in three words – Why should people come and see the show? 

It’s rap bitches.
