An hour long comedy show featuring five different acts talking about sex? After a few pints this starts to seem like a great idea and I would recommend the show to any finding themselves at a loose end (or out of pocket) at 11pm.
The format is simple: five comedians speak for around eight minutes each on sex. The five on show tonight were passable at worst and extremely funny at best. All of the acts were high on smut and the outrage factor seemed to increase set by set with every comedian determined to say something more outrageous than the last. My personal favourite would have to be the grizzled old comedian Ivor Dembina who managed the most outrageous line of the night. Turning to a girl in the front row after telling a dirty joke he remarked ‘it would still fit in your mouth love.’
Sexytime, a comedy duo, were another highlight. The two actors mimed to music a crazy night out and their frenetic actions and open drug-addled eyes proved hilarious and also quite scary. My companion noted that the male member looked like a ‘rapey 70’s bear’ and the duo managed a frankly disgusting but also hilarious pubic hair reference.
So, if you want a sweaty and boozy night, if you are feeling a little randy for comedy then get down to the Free Sisters and enjoy Shaggers.
