Hennessy And Friends – Murmurs (in association with James Grant Comedy / La Favorita Freestival)
By Keara Barnes | Published on Wednesday 20 August 2014
As I entered this hot, sweaty venue, the audience were so tightly squeezed in that there was barely room for one more. Squeeze in I did though – thankfully. Such is the popularity of Hennessy And Friends, an English sketch comedy group currently performing their show ‘Murmurs.’ Miranda Hennessy, David Seymour and Steven Shapland all excel at laughter-inducing gags, physical comedy, and vocal variety. Performing a plethora of rotating spoofs, gags and charades, some fictional and some factual, the performers had the crowd clapping and cheering throughout. I especially appreciated their undeniable exuberance and the quick pace of the production. A sketch comedy show for people who don’t like sketch comedy…and for those that do.
Cowgatehead, until 25 Aug.
