Show 18: The Humble Quest For Universal Genius

Matthew Crosby hosts this quiz as two comedians are challenged in various disciplines to see who is the ultimate genius.

Today Tom Allen was pitted against Angela Barnes. Both held their own as Crosby kept the audience warm and led us through the challenges, from writing a poem about armadillos (some light teasing from Crosby about Allen's pretty crap poem being a highlight of the show) to shooting nerf guns at a swan.

It's an enjoyable show with Barnes bringing the occasionally dark or blue joke (welcomed by me, not sure about everyone else) and Allen being his usual imperious self.

Overall it's a decent show with amusing moments if you can stand the heat of the tent.

Score: 5/10
Venue: Assembly George Square Gardens
Dates: 22nd-30th August
Time: 14:00
