We had a fun night at The Royal George (soho) on Thursday. Kicking things off was Ben Marciano and just why dry January isn’t as complicated as some people make it. It was then over to Mj Hunter, the man with the best pigeon impression on the comedy scene before Charlie Firth warned of the uneven buffing caused by weighted blankets. The immersive musical theatre experience of Jack Scullion was next. All I got to say about Jack is go see him any chance you get. After Jack was Phillip Reiss and why he hopes his resemblance with the King stops at his prostate. Seb Fisher then taught us how to zhuzh up a foot fetish. After Seb was Declan Evans and why it’s a good investment for your nan’s future to find where your local fish bar is. Hot on Declan’s heels was Mac O’Donnell and the trouble with white food supremacy. Henning Nilsen then confessed to sitting when he pees and he don’t care. Closing the first half was Adam B and how not to knot some knots that weren’t knots.
After the break we hit the stage running thanks to Jim Hooker and why a cheap air fryer is a false economy. Next was Stanislav Gunko (pictured) and Putin on The Ritz is his least favourite musical number. Anneka Sirs then hit us with 40 year old condoms and semen chat before Tahsin Guner told us why he worries that his dick might be a Daily Mail reader. Laura Madewell then told us why she adores old people and their quaint, racist ecologically killing ways. Harrison Clark then assured us that the day your kid is born really isn’t the happiest day in your life. It was then over to Fred Dent, who was outed by Coutes. Who knew they offered that service. The penultimate act was Callum Mackenzie and the joys of dating schadenfreude. Closing the show was the hilarious Declan Kennedy, the man that answers the question as to where Thatcher’s hair ended up.
So that was Thursday at The Royal George. Headlining Thursday April 11th we’ve Phillip Cornwall and Paul Little.
