Alistair Barrie’s mission at this year’s Fringe is to point out the obvious. A ‘Fascist Liberal’ he mused for an hour on topics such as Climate Change, the Olympic bid, Terrorism and Religion. So far, so obvious – it could be considered fairly routine stand-up material. However, delivering it in a laid-back style, Barrie managed to keep his observations fresh, sustaining my laughter for the full 60 minutes. The preview I attended was sparsely populated but Barrie managed to riff off various audience members with ease and cleverly dealt with various heckles and toilet demands. I’ve no doubt that his act will benefit from a larger attendance and from what I saw he certainly deserves it. Interesting, enagaging and, most importantly, funny I’d definitely recommend Alistair if you’re looking for a relaxed, late night laugh. Company - Alistair Barrie |
