Pleasance
Intelligent and crude, natural and surreal, Cardinal Burns are all things comic, devising the kind of sketches that gain cult status. Memorable, original and hugely hilarious, the lads show great talent, not just as funny men but as actors, showing off impeccable accents, diverse complete characters and brilliant expressions. They stop at nothing, pulling out all the stops to get your rib cage thundering in laughter: parodying the stereotypes that other comics would never realise are there, using the audience, and more explicitly themselves in their highly inventive sketches. They say time flies when you're having fun, and this show seemed over before it even began, leaving the audience aching in heaps of laughter. One you don't want to miss.
Pleasance Courtyard, 5 - 31 Aug (not 17 or 24), 5.45pm (6.40pm), prices vary, fpp33.
tw rating 5/5
