- Pappy's Fun Club, Edinburgh 08 |
|
|
Arch enemies of The Penny Dreadfuls,
but is this fun club really a match for their Victorian adversaries?
They're certainly not as well-dressed, but the clumsily thrown together
'Blue Peter'-style costumes complement this cool comedy's rough 'n'
ready nature. Nature plays a part, literally, with a cameo from Mother
N, as the comedy troupe try to solve global warming with funergy.
Insanely inventive, the show powers itself with manic creative energy,
and like the Dreadfuls' show, there's a narrative but it emerges gradually
as the show crescendos to a fantastic finish.
Ad-libbed personal insults spring up organically, fuelling the ever-growing
laughter. The force is strong in young Pappy's as the struggle continues
in the Star-rating Wars against the Imperial Victorians.
tw rating 5/5
