Clownster Comedy

So, yes, this is another comedy review site (like Chortle… only less professional, exhaustive or well written) but these are just my opinions so hardly deserve gospel status. I have been watching live comedy for around 15 years and I have to say that I 100% admire anyone who has the guts to take to a spot lit stage in front of an unknown crowd armed with just a microphone and their wits. It’s a profession that I know I could not do and for that I doff my tiny bowler hat to them.

Jack Rooke & Jon Pointing: Big Boys and Friends (2022)

We had no idea what this show was going to be when it first appeared on the listings and we had no idea what either of the named acts were like on stage... And yet, as soon as I saw... Continue Reading →

Andrew Maxwell: Krakatoa (2022)

Over the years we have realised that you need to hit the Fringe at running speed, you can't 'ease' your way in. You have a finite time at the greatest arts festival in the world and it's best if you... Continue Reading →

Joe Lycett: More, More, More! How Do You Lycett? How Do You Lycett? (2022)

It's strike day in London, the third one in a week! The talking heads on the TV are advising people not to travel, the city is a shadow of it's usual bustling self and by Monday we'll all be hearing... Continue Reading →

Dian Cathal: Generation Why (2022)

Despite the fact that we caught a show at the Caroline of Brunswick last year we had somehow forgotten just how far away from the front it actually is! Our race through the Brighton night was not in vain though,... Continue Reading →

Ben Lund-Conlon: Lies, Damned Lies & Buffy The Vampire Slayer (WiP 2022)

We're sat in the Loading Bar on Brighton beach with a table nicely stacked with thematically named gaming cocktails (Skyrum anyone?) and my eyes are constantly switching from the classic StreetFighter 2 arcade cab on the far wall and the... Continue Reading →

Police Cops: The Musical (2021)

One of the things that I love most about Kickstarter is the ability to feel like you've actually contributed to helping a great idea become a reality. Over the years, among other things, I have backed a couple of very... Continue Reading →

Mae Martin: SAP (2021)

I don’t think that I’ve ever had this level of expectation before a comedy show. We booked our tickets literally on the day that they were released, mid covid, with every restriction imaginable. This was to be the shining light... Continue Reading →

Jack Barry: (2021)

Jack Barry was the opening act for the Mae Martin show 'SAP' at the Leicester Square Theatre, and we all know that you can't judge a clown by a 20-minute warm-up set. So why am I writing this review? Well... Continue Reading →

Tim Fitzhigham: Here Now (2021)

"HOWL AT THE MOOOOOOON!"... I am aware that this is is an unusual way to start a comedy review but it is the reason that we first encountered Tim Fitzhigham. Back in the day Tim used to play a, sort... Continue Reading →
