From bizarre, self referential, imaginary conversations to leaving the stage as a triumphant winner, Doody is always sharp, imaginative, original and provides the odd stab of darkness and controversy. There are some lovely flights of fancy, but mostly this is solid observational comedy with his own take on everyday banalities.
Nick brings an aura of confidence to the stage and the audience feels in safe hands throughout. He says he knows well his own place in the comedy hierarchy, and his metaphor to illustrate this is both hilarious and just a little disgusting. The hour long performance flows along well and has been carefully structured, building up to the triumph at the end. Although it's the image of penis kennels that will remain with me....
Nick Doody : T'ai-Po is on in the Canon's Gait at 21.35 until the 29th.
