RAW: Skitch Tease @ The Pod (GoUD)

Feb 25th

Posted by Ernest in Cabaret

Liz Skitch puts a lot of effort into her solo show, Skitch Tease. Quite litteraly starting of with a bit of a strip tease and then covered only with her accordion she presents an entertaining blend of stand up, stories and song. Liz decided to try it in the nude after reaching the conclusion that stand up comedy isn’t scary enough, she says. And she asks not to tell her mother.

The engaging Liz manages to keep a good pace with entertaining lines and a great level of energy.

RAW: Red Bastard @ Umbrella Revolution (GoUD)

Feb 25th

Posted by Ernest in Cabaret

Most times when you leave a show you know what the show was about and you pretty much have an idea what you would tell your friends about it. This however is not the case with Red Bastard. Is this the point, that you are left wondering, wondering was that supposed to make sense or did this really just happen? I wouldn’t describe it a show without a story line, the story is the Red Bastard, and a bastard he is. The audience was raised to some laughter, some a little strained.

At times the Red Bastard managed to bring the energy level extremely high. And some attempts of audience interaction are made however it still all revolves around the Red Bastard. At the end of though you do wonder, what did I just see? I was entertained but was there a point to it all?

RAW: The Boy With Tape On His Face @ BOSCO (GoUD)

Feb 25th

Posted by Ernest in Cabaret

To describe this entertaining and engaging act with one word would have to be ‘Phenomenal’. Rarely do you see an act which engages the audience so deeply as well as giving everyone in the audience a part.

Don’t be mistaken, even though the boy has tape on his face, it is not a mime show. One of the amazing talents of this must see show are the simple items used as props in simple yet wonderfully entertaining gags and a number of good old musical pieces are included to make this a well rounded great hour.

Did I mention, this is a must see show and filled to the max every night.

RAW: Circus Trick Tease @ The Ringbox (GoUD)

Feb 20th

Posted by Ernest in Circus

A hilariously entertaining hour by a crew of three acrobats as they clown around on stage with some impressive tricks, a lot of teasing, a bit of a jive, some clumsiness, some jealousy, some rivalry, a lot of flirting and not just one tantrum. Meet a sensitive new age strongman and Miss Tinkle who are constantly at each other trying to steal the limelight and a clown who’s show is overshadowed, literally, by backstage shenanigans. The audience appreciated the energy of this unique circus’s crew and the acrobatics performed with skill and strength and plenty of humor.

RAW: Francesca Martinez

Feb 18th

Posted by Rubina in Comedy

More social commentator than comedian, Martinez performs at the humble art space: Tuxedo Cat – Attic.

Amusing as her commentary about being ‘wobbly’ (she has cerebral palsy) and her life to date is, the show only manages a couple of giggles. She engages the audience well enough, as her material somewhat universal. However, she seems overly reliant on her ‘condition’ to see the show through.

The show feels more like you’re sitting with Martinez at a cafe, having a coffee and chatting about her life. Her stories often take a tangent, but she always returns to the main thread of conversation.

On until 7th March, I would have expected more laughs from this star, who has starred in Ricky Gervais’ Extras and appeared at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival.

RAW: Justin Hamilton – Idiot Man Child

Feb 15th

Posted by Rubina in Comedy

It’s hard to hate people, even harder to hate Justin!

Witty fella Justin returns to Adelaide, to his roots even, stand up comedy. Absent for the past few Fringes, Justin (or Hammo) is back with an all-new show, premiering in his own hometown.

His on-stage charisma oozes charm and mischief. His animated smart-arse satire guarantees sixty minutes of smiles.

Get to Hammo’s Happy Hour at the Fingerknuckle Nightclub… I mean, Le Cascadeur. ;)
