Review : Mark Restuccia and Toby Brown: Undiluted

Mark Restuccia and Toby Brown: Undiluted
Mark Restuccia and Toby Brown
Like Jimmy Carr before he presented mind-numbing quiz shows on Channel 4 and when he was actually fresh and funny, Mark Restuccia and Toby Brown produce comedy by inverting normal day to day topics into funny yet sickening punch lines. They're to be found in the depths of C soco, and watching the pair is not a bad way to unwind after a hectic day at the Fringe. From the subject of finding your first grey pube stuck in your mother's mouth to the matter of wheelchair-bound basketball players wearing specialised trainers, Mark and Toby don't provide the most hilarious or intelligent comedy, but do raise more than a few laughs from the audience. They have potential for improvement, but I hope they stay away from Channel 4's quiz shows.
C soco, 5 - 31 Aug, 9.00pm (9.50pm), prices vary, ffp75.
tw rating 3/5
