Last time I watched Ivo Graham he was in the Pleasance Courtyard, Cabaret Bar, and unfortunately the show was cut short by a fire alarm. Thankfully this year's show wasn't so rudely interrupted.
This is a stunning, deft, brilliant performance, arguably his best show yet. Tightly written pieces bringing together the past couple of years of being a father, dealing with a break up and facing the clutter of his past stored in his childhood home. The joke rate is high and the energy never drops in this show, there's even a moment of audience interaction which was expertly handled without dropping the momentum. Articulate, witty and smart without being pretentious, this is an outstanding hour of comedy which surely begs for at least a Best Show nomination.
Just a shame there weren't any crisps at the end, like 2019's offering.
