Meet The Fringepig Team...Boxley de Ribeiro

Being a comedian is a constant fight for artistic freedom, so who better to be on the side of the humorous arts than a bona fide freedom fighter?

Boxley de Ribeiro is in Edinburgh on a gap year from the 40-year civil war in the Angolan exclave of Cabinda.
