Mae Martin: Us 4****

August 26, 2015 |

 

Mae Martin has a very unique style, it’s not in your face comedy and sometimes it’s more thought provoking than funny, but a really enjoyable time is to be had in her company. The night I saw her the … Read More

Sajeela Kershi: Shallow Halal 4****

August 26, 2015 |

Award winning comedian Sajeela Kershi has always been able to write and perform a show that is inclusive, sprinkle it liberally with humour and laugh out loud moments and her latest offering is of the same high standards. Although deep … Read More

Suzy Bennett: Gumption! 4****

August 24, 2015 |

Okay I now think I have found the official hottest venue ever, the black cupboard, well it’s hardly bigger, with a low roof and when the excess of thirty people are packed in… it’s unbearable, but no one leaves, all … Read More

Ian Fox – Shutter Monkey (A Comedy Show With Pictures) 3***

August 13, 2015 |

Don Biswas’ show title is entirely accurate: this show is about dyspraxia (which Don has) and his politics, which, as he says, have been influenced by his experience of living with dyspraxia. It’s conventional stand-up and remains faithful to the … Read More

Helen Duff: Smasher – Free 3***

August 10, 2015 |

This show is going to appeal to a particular audience, and that is probably those who are comfortable with the more anarchic end of the comedy spectrum. One person in the audience (though only one) looked decidedly non-plussed … Read More

Return of the Danish Bagpipe Comedian 3***

August 10, 2015 |

Claus Reiss is a genial character, at ease with the audience, his comedy and his bagpipes, mixing his skills with all three to present a pleasant not-quite hour. His comedy is fairly bagpipe based, both talking about them … Read More

MommAutism – A Love Story 3***

August 9, 2014 |

This was a really interesting and genuinely fascinating show. Jennifer Belander’s son has autism, and this show aims to explain a bit about it as well as being funny. It’s quite successful at both of those, though is definitely stronger … Read More
