 If
you are doing a comparison on the number of jokes there are per
show during this years Fringe, then it is almost a certainty that
Mr Martin must have one of the highest ratings.
The
Perrier Award winning comic from 2003 delivers what seems to be a
never ending supply of one-liners in a style a little reminiscent
of his fellow countryman Steven Wright, but all with that
distinctive
touch of the true master he is.
His
packed audience lapped up his set, his jokes, some accompanied by
him on guitar, or keyboard and glockenspiel and occasionally with
illustrations. For all it was over far too soon.
So
if you want to see this comic genius you better be quick, the
tickets are flying out of the box office and I'm sure you'd not be
the unlucky ones to miss out.
