Review:- "Stewart
Francis in Liverpool"
Review by
Jo
Forrest.
THE Canadian comedian, actor and
writer,
Stewart
Francis is currently on tour, in the UK,
with his new show 'Pun Gent.' On 11 November 2015, Stewart
played at the Liverpool Philharmonic to a packed audience. He is a Canadian
comedian, actor and writer. He has been a frequent guest on shows like Mock
the Week and 8 out of 10 cats and is best known for his dead pan one liners.
His hilarious new show proved that nothing was out of bounds and for 60
packed minutes he delivered some of the best puns I have ever heard. Quite a
feat if honest as it can't be easy. Most comedians spend their time building
a story and creating the scene before delivering the punchlines.
The set was really simple with just a small screen on stage, however this
displayed several cartoons all created and written by Stewart Francis, sadly
I was not able to see them from where I was sat, but if the show was
anything to go by then these would have been equally as funny.
The show opened with the brilliantly funny and fellow Canadian, Allyson June
Smith. Her spot lasted for 30
minutes
and had the audience in stitches. She talks about how she has gone from a
teacher to comedienne, did some brilliant impressions of Britney Spears and
Shakira and went on to talk about how she took her mum out to see an erotic
male dancer for her birthday.
This is a show that is well worth seeing, both comedians delivering a total
of 90
minutes of non stop laughter. |
