Alan Carr: Chatty Man. Alan Carr: Funny Man. Alan Carr: Dancing Man…who knew!?
As a w Zithromax pharmacyarm up for the forthcoming tour, Alan played a couple of low key dates round the country and Southsea was lucky enough to be one of the chosen few towns. It was a complete sell out and was a golden opportunity for him to showcase some of his new material (and his inimitable way of dealing with hecklers)
We’ve all seen him with Justin Lee Collins on The Friday Night Project, we’ve settled down to watch his chat show, so how does he fare with stand up? Hilariously, is the answer. buy drugs online
He covered topics such as energy saving lightbulbs (they suck), pervert driving Buy Plavix Online Pharmacy No Prescription Needed instructors (they also suck), canine sex (not a great experience), sweaty moobs (also, not a great experience), lying about hobbies on your CV (who hasn’t?) and rogue erections in monkey enclosures (not recommended) at breakneck speed. The majority of the audience remained doubled-over for the 2 hour show.
It was his views on everyday experiences and conversations which provided the loudest laughs, not least because of his wild gesticulating Cheap Levitra onlineand interpretive dance, to illustrate the point. His recent car breakdown and resulting Bear Grylls survival attempts (strip naked and jump in an icy lake, ration the travel sweets and source water from the windscreen wipers) was particularly amusing. It is, of course, understandable that the RAC would mistake him for an old woman when he finally got to the petrol station to phone for help. His impression of a disabled nit, rolling down a fringe had the audience in stitches. Nit combs merely maim, apparently!
Portsmouth proved itself, yet again, as the classiest city on the coast! Throughout the show, there Levitra reviews was a constant clinking of glass bottles, prompting Alan to ask if The Kings Theatre was built on a bottle bank. Add that to the unenthusiastic response to the environmental issues and our love of Staffordshire Bull Terriers and you have a future “Capital of Culture” contender.
Alan’s speaking voice does resemble a cockney Goose with a sore throat but that adds to the hilarity, for me. He zips round the stage like a bespectabled Billy Elliott, mincing and pirouetting. At one point, getting so sweaty that tissues were required to mop up the excess moisture (these came courtesy of a punter in the box, who lobbed them straight at Alan’s head – again, proof positive, if needed, that Pompey is well classy)
His set was followed by a Question and Answer session. I have made an attempt to capture what was said:
Audience: What’s the most romantic thing you’ve ever done?
Alan: Had a wank on a Megabus.
Audience: What’s the worst thing you’ve ever eaten Florida codes bank ?
Alan: I’m not even going there.
Audience: Do you have a shoe fetish?
Alan: Eh? Wh at kind of Levitra generico a question is that?
Audience: Why did you you come to Portsmouth?
Alan: Oh, that’s nice.
You get the picture! Order Doxycycline Vardenafilo levitra As comedians go, Alan is top of his game. Buy antibiotics online without prescription. Online Drugstore. His banter with the audience is easy, his observations are witty and as for that accent – who could hear it and not laugh?! He is clearly one of life’s genuinely funny people and Britain can breathe a sigh of relief that he chose comedy and not his previous career in a call centre. Go to the “Spexy Beast” tour in September and you’ll see what I mean…
A great show. He seemed to, understandably, flag a bit near the end of the first half but came back in the second half refreshed. His quick funny responses to the hecklers just showed what a good comedian he is. A lot of comics are disappointing when seen live but Alan is, as the reviewer says above, at the top of his game. If you get the chance go and see him. Be sure to take a hankie to wipe your tears of laughter.
