Three To See on 16 Aug: Lost Voice Guy, (Fear), Graham Dickson Is The Narcissist
By ThreeWeeks Editorial | Published on Tuesday 15 August 2017
Three recommended shows to see on Wednesday 16 Aug…
Lost Voice Guy: Inspiration Porn | The Stand Comedy Club 5 & 6 | 1.15pm (pictured)
“Lost Voice Guy is Lee Ridley, who delivers the audio content of his show through a communication aid, as his Cerebral Palsy makes him unable to talk”, explains our review. The result? “An entertaining and thought-provoking hour on how people with disabilities are seen by others”.
(FEAR) | ZOO | 7.10pm
This recommended show “explores the way we are conditioned by discourse – by religion, school, family, the government – to be afraid, and to conform to that fear”. Our reviewer reports that “the performance is engaging, especially when he ad-libs with the audience”.
Graham Dickson Is The Narcissist | Underbelly Cowgate | 8.10pm
Go see this show of which our reviewer reported “playing on the pretentiousness of overly theatrical performers, Dickson’s showcase features increasingly daft caricatures”. The outcome? “This show tickled me to the point I almost choked on my own laughter”. Go see.
