Review of Chester Comedy Festival Comedy Crawl

this is a great night out

Review of Jo Caulfield Voodoo Doll

Well delivered and naturally funny when Jo was in the groove with each topic but even though it was trialling her material, I felt the gaps where she referred to the table list was disruptive and I felt she’d missed bits out she probably remembered too late. I felt she’d have been better with a music stand in front of her so she kept with the audience. I like that her material isn’t just about asking the audience questions and working off the responses as I feel that is easy, cheating comedy and Jo doesn’t cheat, she works hard at her material.
Good luck in Edinburgh Jo

Review of Neil Delamere

Great night.

Review of Jo Caulfield Voodoo Doll

Saw Jo Caulfield doing a work in progress as a Edinburgh warm up. The venue was smaller and I enjoyed the more intimate venue. She was funny and engaging and I enjoyed this more than the Edinburgh show I have seen.

A very enjoyable evening.

Review of Robin Ince\'s Chaos of Delight (Work in Progress)

Fantastic funny evening listening to Robin's stream of consciousness about astronauts, vegans, fatherhood and a very good Brian Cox impression. Please put some air con or fans in the Church though it was boiling !

Review of Robin Ince\'s Chaos of Delight (Work in Progress)

Small room was ideal for comedy setting but no ventilation so was quite uncomfortable.
Was concerned it appeared that the exit doors were fastened closed and had to be opened from other side.

Review of Gary Delaney Gagsters Paradise (Work In Progress)

Absolutely hilarious. If last night's show is half as funny as the finished article, then we could have a problem.

Review of Gary Delaney Gagsters Paradise (Work In Progress)

Great night, very well run, nice intimate venue and great to see professionals running some new stuff out. Gary and Robin were both excellent

Review of Gary Delaney Gagsters Paradise (Work In Progress)

I've seen Gary many times and he keeps getting better and better. He was on top form :-). Venue a bit disappointing - a bit cramped, hot, uncomfy plastic chairs and WiFi not working - but with acts as good as Gary it didn't matter.

Review of Gary Delaney Gagsters Paradise (Work In Progress)

Great night. Was a work in progress . He was testing his jokes out for a future tour. Sharp clever but mainly very funny.
