 Well!!
We have been here before, how to describe Boothby Graffoe?
This tall, talented man has me in
stitches and although both Geoff and I have seen him many times
before we always leave wanting more.
His brand, if he has one, of humour is a little off the
wall, not to mention the ceiling, floor and any other direction
you could mention. Apart
from his deep hypnotising sexy voice, it is his eyes that get me! Both attracting and appealing then totally scary.
Appearing with him is the multi talented
Nick (safety) Pynn a musical virtuoso who almost manages to keep
his face straight throughout the show, even when he is the butt of
Boothby’s jokes. Boothby and Nick managed to take us on a musical tour of the
globe covering 17 countries musically, although how did ‘Summer
Nights’ cover the Greek culture??
Covering subjects from Bird Flue, America’s penchant for
attacking enemies in Alphabetical order, how accents changed from
English thanks to sunshine, and reviewers to stalkers… and that
was only the first half!! After
a short interval they were back doing comical musical numbers
which Boothby excels at.
By the way, we have had a copy of Boothby’s Wot Italian
for two years, when will we get a new CD?
An all round great evening with
everything from pleasant visuals, great comedy and superb if
unusual music see them if you can.
As part of a Scottish tour he visited The
Stand Edinburgh, and will be part of the Glasgow Comedy Festival
by appearing at Glasgow Stand later this month.
If you don’t manage to see him during
this tour roumour has it he will be back for The Edinburgh Fringe
Festival in August also at The Stand. Check out either Boothby’s
website www.boothbygraffoe.com,
Nicks site www.nickpynn.co.uk
or The Stand itself www.thestand.co.uk.
It should be my turn to see Boothby
during the 2006 fringe but I see I will still have a fight for the
ticket on my hands as he was Geoff’s discovery.
All in all a great night’s
entertainment and as usual, a big thank you to all the staff at
The Stand for the friendly, efficient and well organised way in
which they run this value for money establishment.
The Stand run comedy shows seven days a
week every week, so check out their web site for the bill of fare
over the next couple of months, I know there is every chance
we’ll be attending on quite a few occasions.
Brilliant show gorgeous guy cant wait to
see him again.
