Pappy’s Fun Club - Free!
Pappy’s Fun Club/PBH Free Fringe
Good gig, I say - putting on free comedy is
great in a money-orientated month such as this
and this lot seem to have the spirit of the Fringe
at the centre of this show. Elements of the deadpan,
the absurd, a touch of Monty Python, and other
influences are fused to make the whole morsel.
However, despite all this potential, the comedy
does leave a little to be desired, with the likes
of gags on the subject of homosexuality, Hitlers,
and Jesus being an aphrodisiac of sorts. Come
on, guys - if you wanted to be really socially
critical, there are other things to be talking
about, and I couldn’t help noticing how
clichéd it all is at times. A fun hour
though - if you’re passing, why not pop
in?
