Happiness The Search Continues, Arnold BrownI called into see Arnold Brown on Saturday - and I had a great time. I didn't realise there was a 'special guest', but from the minute Ian Macpherson walked on stage I was a fan. And so were the rest of the audience. I had seen Arnold Brown before, years ago, and that's why I went. I suppose he, and Macpherson, are acquired tastes. This is quirky, off-beat humour. The audience on Saturday was brilliant, but, a bit like jazz, I can imagine there's some people just wouldn't get it. ( I read the other review here and wondered if we'd been at the same show.)So this is a show for people who like their brain twisted about a bit. The gags are subtle, not served up on a plate. My favourite was the one about the dolphins. It's different from most other stuff you get on the fringe. And, in my opinion, all the better for it. I left happy. |

Arnold Brown & Ian MacphersonComedy is meant to be funny but this was cringe worthy,poor & not very funny at all.Maybe they had an off day or maybe I expected too much. Interested to read what others thought. |

A.l. KennedyAL Kennedy, whilst clearly a likeable,articulate and intelligent person whould clearly stick to what she does best, writing!This was like attending a slow motion train wreck as she painfully stumbled from from one cringeworthy monologue to the other and tried, mostly in vain, to gain laughs by lambasting her home town of Dundee. The show was made all the more painful by her own admission several times that it was a quiet audience and she was unsure if we had enjoyed ourselves. In the word's of Noel Coward, "Dont put your daughter on the stage" Mrs Kennedy! |

Daniel Kitson - The Impotent Fury Of The PrivilegeI have never in my life heard such unmitigated BS. The man is a utterly pretentious void of any real or meaningful commentary. He uses antiquated, ancient, and long-winded language to try and pretend he's wrestling with big issues and is himself an intelectual heavyweight. Brevity is the soul of wit however, and simplicity itself is clever.What a pubescent pile of nonsense. If he really wants to change the world, maybe he should stop talking s***e for his supper and become a nurse or aid worker. Buy 6 beers and a pizza a watch the telly, better value at £10. |
