Comedy

Terry Alderton is an odd man. And this was an odd show.

Americans are all too often the butt of easy jokes these days. Rich Hall is one very good reason why they shouldn’t be.

Steve Hughes opened his set at Norwich Playhouse tonight with a joke about the length of the flight between his native Australia and the UK.

This is one of the hardest reviews I’ve ever written.

Adam Hills opens shows in his latest tour with a warning: he doesn’t have a planned set, he’ll mostly spend the gig talking to the audience, and it could go very wrong.

Jack Whitehall may not be fresh meat on the comedy circuit any more, but he could still do with some more seasoning.

Watching Russell Kane on stage is like setting light to a box of fireworks: you get a constant stream of explosions, you never quite know where they’ll end up, but you can’t help getting excited watching the bangs.

I’ve never been to a gig at the Playhouse before with a police presence, but Richard Herring has stirred the ire of Christians with this revival of his first one-man show.
