Neil Delamere:- Controlled Substance 4****
August 15, 2018 | one4reviewMaybe there is something in the air in Ireland that makes the conveyor belt of really funny comics churn out more year after year. Okay Delamere has been around for a while, I first saw him in 2008, but he … Read More
Laurence Clark:- An Irresponsible Father’s Guide to Parenting 5*****
August 15, 2018 | one4reviewI have always found Laurence Clark to be a funny comedian, and one who has always had a story to tell in his own style, a winning formula of him talking and blending in video and big-screen visual gags and … Read More
Lucy Frederick: – Even More Naked 3***
August 15, 2018 | one4reviewLucy Frederick comes onto stage and opens with an apology…she is posh and finds it hard to finish her sentences. Well the first one is correct she is but not so sure of the second.
In a set packed out … Read More
Athena Kugblenu: Follow the Leader 2**
August 13, 2018 | one4reviewI really wanted to enjoy this show, but it felt like an hour of material that would have been more at home in a comedy club of the less salubrious variety, where the patrons are a little inebriated and not … Read More
Edd Hedges: For Eva, from Forever Ago 5*****
August 13, 2018 | one4reviewWell, this was an unexpected delight. Some performers tell stories, and you never leave the venue. Mr Hedges tells stories and transports you to his car at the service station, his parents’ living room, the pub, his school. He even … Read More
Joey Page: Perhaps Under Stars That Would Stretch Forever (an Idiot Explains the Universe in Under an Hour) 2**
August 13, 2018 | one4reviewMr Page seemed bemused by the size of his audience. It might be because his show has had amazing word of mouth success, but more likely because it was Sunday and raining; but most people seemed to have a good … Read More
Courtroom Play: A Courtroom Play 5*****
August 13, 2018 | one4reviewI really enjoy Chekhov’s Bear, and this play has the same sort of feel: gently preposterous premise, characters you immediately care about, and a script that straddles the line of credulity. For the production itself, the set is relatively minimal, … Read More
Angela Barnes: Rose-Tinted 4****
August 13, 2018 | one4reviewAngela Barnes star definitely seems to be on the rise at the moment as she is regularly involved in TV and radio, either appearing or writing for others. She is a plain spoken, working class woman with an opinion and … Read More
Phil Ellis is Ready for the Big Time 4****
August 13, 2018 | one4reviewFrom the minute Phil arrives in the room wearing roller skates, to the tune I’m Still Standing, his trademark shambolic but jovial humour sets the tone for the rest of this cleverly constructed show. This is not a formulaic stand up … Read More
Justin Moorhouse: Northern Joker 4****
August 13, 2018 | one4reviewJustin Moorhouse is exactly what he says, he’s from the north, Manchester (south of here) and he tells jokes. He has such a relaxed style and obviously oodles of experience as his delivery and timing show.
In what was a … Read More
