James Donald Forbes McCann: McCann-dle in the Wind
  • Adelaide Fringe

Should dogs be allowed sex changes? Is it okay to punch a Nazi puncher? Can refugees get gay married? James Donald Forbes McCann (hit107, The Project, Adelaide Comedys Best Adelaide Comedian) has the answers in a brand new comedy show that's half a star better than last year. 1/2 Advertiser In truth, James doesn't have any of the answers. He's caught up in this crazy world like the eponymous candle in the eponymous wind. What he does have, verily, is an outstanding set of skills as a stand-up comedian, poet, and songwriter. The creator of hit festival shows Wolf Creek: The Musical and The Sound of Nazis sold out last year, and is likely to do so again. had the audience in fits of hysterical laughter I found myself doubled over with tears rolling down my face Aussie Theatre

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.
