Andy Field’s Funeral (Andy Field)
By Kieran Scott | Published on Friday 9 August 2019
Andy Field apparently thrives on one-star reviews, though it has only happened once at the Fringe. It won’t be happening this time, sorry Andy. In ‘Funeral’, it’s certainly not the end of days for Field. His intrepid storytelling, mainly deriving from his experiences with weed and hallucinogenics, is eccentric and quirky, while the anecdotes about his wild acid trips are well worth an hour of your time. His style is experimental, with an incoherent and erratic running order that differs daily. He is an unconventional and seemingly sloppy comedian, which is the most appealing aspect of his delivery. Though the characters he has devised are hit and miss, the hilarious ones really hit the chortle button.
Just The Tonic at The Caves, until 25 Aug.
