Since Pierre Novellie’s last outing at The Edinburgh Fringe, he’s had a lot going on in his life, and that’s what makes up the content in his new show, “Okay, One More Then Bedtime”.

He’s been touring the length and breadth of the country, as well as managing to get married, have a honeymoon and publish a book. He’s a fantastic comedian, and his exceedingly dry and deliberate style is wonderful to watch. His sense of intelligence shines through and his material is beautifully written and delivered with perfection. His pace is pedestrian, but in such a way that this adds to the charm of his show.

There’s a strong narrative throughout that plays to his ASD, and the situations that he finds himself having to deal with. He is a consummate professional and has an air about him that makes us feel that we are in some kind of philosophy lecture and he’s our well-read professor.

The Monkey Barrel was a total sell out, and the crowd absolutely loved him, his shows are selling out fast, this is one you do not want to miss. I even went upstairs to the bar afterwards and bought his book!
