Dublin Fringe Festival 2023: The comedian enjoys his games and riffs, and so does the audience
Who knew you could do a whole sketch show with only one performer? Cantwell, armed with music, dancing, projected videos and photographs, and some costume changes, manages to pull this off with confidence and charm even when it threatens to go slightly west. Having built a profile via his prolific Patreon Hit Show podcast and live shows, he’s got a great crowd in, a mainly youngish, responsive audience.
The show fairly zips along, a series of solo sketches interspersed with video sketches . Cantwell’s humour is inventive, whimsical, with silly flights of fancy and daft juxtapositions.There are some quizzical ideas in here, from surreal riffs to taking a concept to its logical if unlikely conclusion. A disco bitch is actually a doggie dance. An actor does a hyperactive audition for RTÉ’s latest Dublin crime drama.
Mellow-voiced and swerving into accents and voices, Cantwell enjoys his games and riffs, and so does the audience.
