	Edinburgh 2005: Chris Addison: Atomicity (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Addison’s gift is to be able to format all these disparate ideas into one convincing theme, and one that will most appeal to middle-class people like him who are smugly proud of their education.
		Addison talks remarkably quickly – although his crisp received pronunciation means nothing’s ever garbled – which means he can pack a lot more into his show than most.
		Addison has again cemented his reputation as a copper-bottomed festival favourite, well deserving his sell-out status.

	chris argyris, double-loop learning and organizational learning @ the encyclopedia of informal education
		Chris Argyris has made a significant contribution to the development of our appreciation of organizational learning, and, almost in passing, deepened our understanding of experiential learning.
		Chris Argyris’ early research explored the impact of formal organizational structures, control systems, and management on individuals (and how they responded and adapted to them).
		Chris Argyris and Donald Schön suggest that each member of an organization constructs his or her own representation or image of the theory-in-use of the whole (1978: 16).

	BBC - Manchester - Entertainment - Chris Addison at Bury Met - 9/10
		Addison’s one-man show – which earned him a Perrier award nomination at the Edinburgh Fringe festival – focuses on how 92 chemical elements in the periodic table rule our lives.
		Addison doesn’t feel the need to patronise his audience and for that we should be grateful.
		It is a shame that Addison didn’t play to a larger crowd because there is no doubt that his material is pure Au, atomic number 79 in the periodic table.

		Chris Addison and Simon Munnery are as unlike physically as possible, with stage manners at polar opposites.
		Addison looks like the sleek, good-looking chap who sailed through his lectures and won over the fresher girls in the uni bar.
		Addison's jocular explanations of how modern man has developed stupidity to compensate for no longer having a natural predator (all those injuries from men zipping up their pants may be a form of natural selection, you know) are clever, erudite and amusing.

	Chris Addison Interview - p2
		Chris – “There’s a hotel in downtown Montreal, called The Delta, and it’s where most of the acts in the Festival and much of the industry go, and consequently the bar is rammed every night with Americans worrying about their sitcom deal.
		Chris – “They’d ring us up for our message, you’d think ‘oh no, is it me again’, and then the next day you’d hear this beep, press receive, and there were your words.
		Chris –“When you asked, I was thinking ‘what a ridiculous thing’, and then it occurred to me that for lunch today I went to Tesco’s, bought two French rolls, and poured taramasalata all over them.”

		Chris: Now, it's time for the part of the show where we expand the country's collective vocabulary with a useful word which you can use to impress your chums with later...in the last word.

	Addison - Sol LeWitt: Recent Acquisitions (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		The Addison’s long connection to Sol LeWitt began in 1978 through Addison director Chris Cook, long an admirer and supporter of conceptual art.
		One example is the strong connection of LeWitt’s work to the Addison’s extensive holdings of photography by Eadweard Muybridge, the artist-inventor who in the late-nineteenth century pioneered the depiction in photographic sequences of people and animals carrying out ordinary movements.
		Above all, the Addison considers Sol LeWitt to be one of the major figures of his time; he revolutionized the idea and practice of drawing, and realigned the relationship between an idea and the art it produces.

	Telegraph \| Arts \| Edinburgh reports: 'there's no excuse to be an idiot, unless you're a clown'
		That Addison owes quite such a debt of gratitude to the presenter of the children's TV classic Think of a Number will make perfect sense to anyone who's caught his last few solo shows.
		To watch Addison prowling the stage this month in front of an unfurled poster of the periodic table, explaining that every living thing has to contain carbon, just as "every Fringe has to have a student production of Abigail's Party" is to be taken back to the pithy wit of Ball at his best.
		This year, Addison became a familiar face on the small screen thanks to Armando Ianucci's Westminster satire, The Thick of It, in which he plays a clever but clueless advisor to Chris Langham's bumblingly inept minister.

		Chris, being a thoroughly decent sort of chap, agrees.

	Guardian \| Chris Addison
		Chris Addison is considered the country's most erudite young stand-up - or "Edinburgh's Favourite Ponce", in his own phrase.
		It is a trifle disappointing that this supposed thinker doesn't return from his delve into the history with anything more than a few gags.
		Addison's familiar comic technique is to apply British values onto the evolving savages of the Savannah.

	A better man drops us into cradle of civilisation - Reviews - www.theage.com.au
		Lanky Englishman Chris Addison (pictured) may describe himself as a "ponce", but his patter traverses a world of absurdity and still brings home laughs.
		Addison's high-speed lecture style runs through implausible flights of fancy and detailed dissections of historical movements, such as the formation of cities and currencies.
		Addison may be a self-claimed ponce, but he also may well be our new comedy king.

		Chris is a real ball of nervous energy on stage, hopping from foot to foot and apparently thinking various notions up spontaneously (“is that wrong?” soon became his catchphrase).
		He discussed with us what the woman who does sign language on the TV is actually saying (“maybe she’s telling us that she could come up with something better than this programmeor is she just slagging off blind people?”).
		Chris was excellent but on what was yet another hot night he did go on for a seemingly very long time.

		Addison is probably the country's prime exponent of the too-clever-by-half school of comedy.
		Addison regularly tops his gags four, five, six times over.

	The Stage Online :: Reviews :: Chris Addison - Atomicity
		But then last year’s Perrier Award nominee Chris Addison is not your usual, run of the mill comedian.
		For a start, Addison is unashamedly middle class and, in a comedy world where a chummy regional accent can get you halfway towards winning over your audience, makes a merit of his cut-glass accent and sharp intellect.
		Broadly speaking, it is about how we relate to the universe, using the 92 elements as a basis, but finds time to take in cloning, stage hypnotism, the British navy, creationists and the childishness of the Coca-Cola company along the way, not to mention a brilliantly judged section on the London bombings.

	Chris Addison - Atomicity - The Assembly Rooms 2005 Programme and Online Booking
		Perrier Award Nominee 2004 and Fringe favourite Chris Addison returns to present for your edification a trawl through the very fabric of the Universe, stopping only to fail to answer important questions such as "What are we made of?", "Did somebody forget to put something in the recipe?" and "Is this your vehicle, sir?"
		Addison makes them 100 per cent fascinating, meaning his Atomicity should be a component of everyone's Fringe visit.'
		It is basically an excuse for him to mix higbrow humour - molybdenum is the only element named when drunk - with some nice topical gags: it must be so depressing to be a failed suicide bomber; you can't kill yourself because, well, you can't kill yourself.

	Lee Tran Lam - Chris Addison: Civilization - State of the Arts
		After this locally-spiced preamble, Addison argues that civilization is about to collapse and therefore we have to look at our old, hoary model to discern how we can make a new better one once everything collapses.
		Addison’s well-structured show is all the more remarkable given that many comics deliver shapeless sets which are essentially nothing more than a jukebox of random skits (Ross Noble is a posterboy for this, even though he is highly funny while doing so).
		And his smart brand of humour is a welcome relief given that some comedy is a mere celebration of the stupid – you do get a sense that he has an endearingly daggy propensity for watching long documentaries on archaeological digs.

		A woman at a table on the left of stage is taken to over her rather fickle dismissal of the Millennium Eye as being "British" for dull.

		Don't be fooled by the affable, academic air of Addison, who looks and sounds a bit like a lanky Jeff Green - he has both bark and bite.
		He suggests that there should be an apologetic ringtone for middle-class mobile-phone users, and weeds out the bourgeois members of the audience with his reference to gite holidays.
		It's fun to see Addison get hot under the collar about such things, and indeed he is prone to ranting.
