OUR VERDICT: Laugh
out loud funny
Links:
The Stables is
a great venue, where no seat is a bad seat and heads don’t really get in the way
of your view, and that makes it a fab place to see any entertainment act, music,
comedy….
Tonight comedian Danny
Bhoy was appearing as part of his “Wanderlust” tour. The venue was almost sold
out, just a few seats left empty as we settled in for eighty minutes of constant laughter.
Obviously we
are not going to reveal the content of his stage show as this would only spoil
it for those who are yet to see the rest of the tour, but suffice to say, it
was very well written, linked together, absolutely hilarious, the content
striking a chord with many of the audience which made it even more funny. His
show is well paced, with pauses in all the right places which allowed us to
have a good laugh without missing the next gag!
Minty could
listen to DannyBhoy’s voice for the rest of eternity, his soft Scottish lilt entrancing to say the least! His interaction with some of the audience (those
who were a tad late and found their seats after the house lights had gone down,
the girls munching on big bags of crisps and Ryan, the young lad in the front row
with the Beiber hairdo) shows he is a funny guy, not sticking to a script all
the time and has no hesitation in bringing the audience into the fold.
The Beeb couldn't resist letting Danny Bhoy know that he wasn't the only Scotsman in the venue, sounding very much the scary Glaswegian, which created a lot of laughter as Danny Bhoy retorted to the shout out!
Eighty
minutes is a long time to thrill an audience with comedy and even longer nowadays
for anyone to sit still in the audience but the time just flew past and before
we knew it, Danny Bhoy was doing his wrap up, weaving everything together and
leaving the stage to a rapturous applause.
A brilliant
show. Go see it.
