I am no expert regarding sketch comedy and haven't seen a lot of pieces. However, after this performance I am desperate to see more of it. Sometimes I feel with a piece of comedy, jokes run on for far too long. Kids with Beards, the company who created this piece, timed the scenes perfectly. None of the jokes over-ran or were used to excess.
There was jokes for every person in the audience from innuendos to 'dad-jokes' to hyperbole. Everyone in the audience was laughing and not just a slight giggle here or there, but consistently. There were even times when the audience was actively involved in a few of the different sketches. I won't talk more about this because the joy is in the surprise.
The writing was one of the best parts about it. It was witty, clever, and a work of genius. The actors in the piece were completely committed to the sketches, and every character they portrayed, even when things didn't go completely to plan - which actually made it better in areas!
As a whole, the comedic timing was spot on and there was no sketch that felt out of place or weaker than the others. The show was well-written and rehearsed enough to be slick but not too much that it became clinical and no longer funny.
I wish I saw this at Brighton...
