David Mills – The Gospel Truth (Pay What You Want / David Mills)
By Alix White | Published on Wednesday 7 August 2013
David Mills engages the audience from the off with his conversational yet energetic style. At times you could be excused for thinking you were having drinks and a long overdue catch up with your flamboyant best friend. His American enthusiasm blends perfectly with his dry London wit to create something a little bit different, while the small and intimate nature of the show allowed for Mills to bounce off audience reactions and involve them without being intimidating. At times the material was near-the-knuckle and maybe not the most comfortable experience; if you have a penchant for political correctness enter at your peril. However I am not as easily offended, and jokes about inter-species relationships weren’t completely lost on me!
Heroes @ The Hive, until 25 Aug (not 14), 5.30pm.
