Show 18: Jordan Gray: Is It a Bird?

Having been recommended by Stu Goldsmith and BriTANicK I thought I ought to check this show out.

Gray is a trans female musical comedian, with a show about being trans and songs celebrating the human body. There's plenty of bravura and confidence, she's certainly not shy about herself nor is she apologetic for her confidence, but though there's plenty of style I didn't feel there was any real substance to the material. There's nothing particularly smart or interesting in the material, just hot energy that tries to carry the show through. At the end when Gray changes into her superhero costume (spoiler alert, she's just naked) certainly makes a strong point. It's a laudable hour but at ultimately I felt more bemused than amused.

Score: 2/10
