It's been a while since I updated on shows we've seen:
Richard Dawkins does not exist and we can prove it: a show very much in its gestation, the creators confessed to us afterwards they're still struggling a little with the maths and running to time. Great show though by two talented performers.
A slacker's guide to Western theater was a good show to see in the morning. It didn't require an excess of brain power and was reasonably entertaining without making us think. Possibly requires a background in theater or being a wanker to get some of the jokes. Worth going if you can get discount tickets.
Joey Page's marvellous human museum was a surprise gem. We got our tickets for free because some pretty women tricked us, and we're glad they did. Joey's high-energy, self-depreciating and slightly weird style of stand up had the whole audience eating from his hand. Worth the full price of admission.
A nifty history of evil was put on by Australian comedian John Robertson who I had never heard of and am now ashamed I had never heard of. His free show had an audience rolling in their seats. The only true evil was that we weren't paying to see him perform. You wouldn't get him to entertain your children, but I don't have children so it wasn't an issue.
Please tell me you're going to see Dark Side of the Poon. I heard it got no stars
ReplyDeleteEditors Note: the commentary style of A day of shows, with the 'Go if you' as the final line was much punchier - and gave the reader a focus.
ReplyDeleteOn another point, when do we get a photo of the Princess on the blog?
Not going to Poon, it's on at an inconvenient time and costs money I'd rather spend on better shows or beer.
