Tom Lucy : Reluctant Millennial 4****

August 6, 2018 |

Tom Lucy bounded into the venue with his usual youthful energy. Tonight he almost retreated back out again! Tonight he is confronted by a sight that would make the most hard core experienced stand up run for the exit; a … Read More

Matt Forde : Brexit Through the Gift Shop 4****

August 6, 2018 |

According to Matt, there are only two sides to the political divide in Britain today, and if you are on the opposite side from Matt then you are clearly “f****ing mad”! And to be absolutely fair he makes a very … Read More

Mitch Benn :- Doing It On Purpose 4****

August 6, 2018 |

For more than two decades now Mitch Benn has been gracing the Fringe, offering his perspective on events using his undoubted skill as a musician and delightfully cutting wit, both in his songs and in the monologues that are in … Read More

Seymour Mace Gets Sucked Off by God :- 5 *****

August 5, 2018 |

It must be an amazing place the imagination of Seymour Mace. Year after year this unique performer delivers an outstanding hour of mayhem, peppered with mirth, audience involvement, wacky, yet amazing ideas that are outrageously entertaining and, as always, the … Read More

John-Luke Roberts: All I Wanna Do Is [FX: GUNSHOTS] With a [FX: GUN RELOADING] and a [FX: CASH REGISTER] and Perform Some Comedy! 5*****

August 5, 2018 |

Late’n’Live comes with a reputation of being rather riotous; the show I saw seemed quite calm (caveat of ‘calm for a drunk audience at 1am’), though the press office and the compere did mention an incident of on-stage vomiting the … Read More

Olga Koch: Fight 4****

August 5, 2018 |

The Scotland-Russia Forum each year compiles a list of festival shows which are from, about, or to do with Russia. Ms Koch’s (pronounced to rhyme with ‘loch’) show, as well as being funny, manages to give a flavour of living … Read More

Comedians Against Humanity 3***

August 5, 2018 |

The format for this show is strong, and the compere is excellent, so the quality and amusement will vary on the quality of the guest comedians and the willingness of the audience. I saw three excellent contributors, and the audience … Read More

Alfie Brown: Lunatic 4****

August 5, 2018 |

I did spend the first seven-ish minutes of this show thinking it wasn’t for me. Alfie came across as a bit smug, and frankly, a bit of a twit, and if I wasn’t outright offended by a couple of his … Read More

Rhys Nicholson :- Seminal 5****

August 4, 2018 |

The Underbelly Jersey performing space is buried deep in Briso Square and of course there is total darkness as the show commences but it all changes once Rhys Nicholson hits the stage clad in a distinctive suit and infused with … Read More
