Show 24: Stuart Goldsmith: End Of

Stuart Goldsmith, off of Comedian’s Comedian fame, returns with another show. I watched him back in 2016 with a decent show about the birth of his son. I’d given him a miss last year but thought it’d be worthwhile to see how he was this year, especially given that many of the podcast fans had been praising the show.

Goldsmith’s graduated up to the bigger room at The Liquid Rooms, seating around 300 people – he’s worried he’s bitten off more than he can chew, but he’s got a loyal podcast following so I doubt he’d need to worry, and besides he’s got decent stand-up skills

This year’s show focuses more on him coping with being a parent, living in Bristol and being set up on a date to make a ‘man friend’ by his wife. It’s all playful fun and parts of frustration for Goldsmith, but he’s a master performer and he acts-out scenes with delight. The very dramatic ending to the show puts a nice cherry on top. He’s not being groundbreaking, but he’s a decent act you can’t go wrong with.
