Vagabond Comedy: online stand-up review
Hosted by Jordan Brookes and pals Darren J Coles and Charlie Webster, Vagabond s take on the online comic ensemble remains appealingly chaotic
★★★★ Review by Emma Sullivan | 13 Apr 2021
There’s a real sense of cabaret at work in the diversity of the performers at tonight s third edition of Vagabond Comedy: a strong showing from musical acts (Huge Davies, Frank Foucault, Siblings) and a nicely ad hoc, offbeat quality to proceedings. There s Sunil Patel, for example, deadpanning his list of ‘ideas’ (‘Best Monk in Britain’, ‘Best Monk in Britain 2’) or Frank Foucault’s similarly eccentric contribution: satirical songs animated by the elusive charm of his persona. Meanwhile Charlie Webster added a touch of vaudeville, drifting through his flat to a love song, lugubrious face wafting amongst the clothes in the wardrobe, in an irresistibly comic manner.
