There is nothing quite like a great night of comedy and, if you've never tried it before, you'll find it hard to better the Cutting Edge at the Comedy Store on a Tuesday. The principle is simple: a gang of comedians get up on stage and try and make jokes about recent events, as suggested by the audience. It's damn hard, I'm sure, but the Cutting Edge crew pull it off with the greatest of ease. With improv there's always the risk that it won't be funny, and it's true to say that a couple of jokes fell flat, but the gang structures the show with a couple of set pieces, including a double act and some music, which does a great job of keeping the audience going and on-side if the improv section prove difficult. They really do like to get the audience involved in this show, so expect a lot of banter and be careful if you sit on the front rows - you never know what might happen. I can honestly say, I have rarely laughed so much at any comedy venue. Truly, an entertaining night. Get on down and enjoy some belly-laughs.
This week with Sean Meo, Paul Thorne, Ian Stone, Martin Coyote, Steve Gribbin, Roger Monkhouse. |
