Geoff discovered Danny Bhoy as the compere of The Comedy Zone, a Fringe show in the Pleasance Cabaret Bar several years ago.  I myself didn’t see him until two years ago.

In preparation for the 2005 Edinburgh Fringe Festival Danny has taken his new show on the road.  We caught up with him in the Adam Smith Theatre Kirkcaldy in Fife on Saturday 9th July.

Supported and introduced by Steve Williams, this personable young man started our evening off well and has left me with the desire to see some pensioner in a mobility scooter attempting to cross speed bumps!! They eventually used them to build up enough momentum to get them over a sleeping policeman.  He is one of those comedians who rarely stand in one place for longer than a few seconds. I would have loved to see him with a larger, more responsive, audience.  Sadly he is not performing during this forthcoming Fringe but perhaps we will get to see him in 2006.

Danny himself was his usual pleasant self, his new show is about the ‘excellent state of the Scottish diet!’!  The best in the world (actually voted the worst in the world bar none!).  He mentioned most of the better-known local delicacies but managed to miss out on deep fried Mars bars and Irnbru.  We both hope to get to see him during the fringe Danny Bhoy Assembly Music Hall 19-30 (7-30pm) to 20-30 (8-30pm) August 5th to 28th (not 8th or 15th). 

Please don’t be a typical Scotsman and come late!

Why?

See the show and find out!!
