The Return Of The Mighty Kids Beatbox Comedy Show (Blue Jeans Management)
By Bruce Blacklaw | Published on Monday 15 August 2022
Good beatboxing can, in appropriate dosages, be pretty entertaining, as can good comedy. What happens when you put them together… for kids? Well, I guess pretty much inevitably this. Busily interactive, particularly so for one front-row dad, there’s a varied lot of nonsense packed in: daft jokes from comic Jarred, beatbox mixes and sardonic asides from Hobbit. Interestingly, when Hobbit does a bit of proper beatboxing near the end to lay down the track for the excellent ‘song of the day’ finale, there’s a noticeable jolt of energy into the room and everyone really does get into it, clapping along and all. The overall mix may be slightly uneven, but a fair way for young Fringers to round off their day.
Assembly Rooms, until 27 Aug.
