Ivo Graham – No Filter (Off The Kerb)

By Ben Shannon | Published on Monday 10 August 2015

Ivo Graham is in complete control on stage. After dealing with the latecomers exceptionally well, he proceeded to unleash a barrage of finely crafted material, albeit with an occasionally predictable formula. This is Graham’s third solo run, though his subject matter seems more serious than in recent years: asking questions about “the Facebook generation” and their social media obsessions. Some sections were more enjoyable than others, though his biggest laughs came from the audience interaction which framed the show well. Whilst ‘No Filter’ may not be his finest hour, it would be foolish to ignore the fact that he is one of the circuit’s truly talented wordsmiths, and his skills only continue to improve.

Pleasance Courtyard, until 30 Aug.
