Nick Hall – Dodekahedron (Milwaukee People’s Theatre Academy)

By Stephanie Gray | Published on Friday 21 August 2015

Nick Hall begins his debut character comedy strongly, with a brilliant parody of a party political broadcast that promises a quick, intelligent show to follow. From there Hall goes on to sketches of various professions; from commercials and TV watchdogs, easily understood and moderately funny, to a skit about animation that was lost on almost the entire audience. I would also issue a word of warning: the show is listed as PG, but the final minutes saw Hall, playing a Halford’s employee, portray something that was not only inappropriate for younger audience members – one of whom had to cover her eyes – but also horribly awkward for the rest of us.

Underbelly George Square, until 31 Aug.
