Review : Nik Coppin - Loquacious

Listening to him rant about a bad ThreeWeeks review he once received was the only time I felt slightly awkard during Nik Coppin's set; not sure whether he had amazing intuition or it was just a coincidence. With his desperation to make friends, and his beaming smile - which takes over his whole face - he puts his audience at ease from the outset of his show, which, as its title 'Loquacious' might imply, sees the comedian spending an hour talking bollocks. Not that this is bad; his anecdotes from his travels around the world are genuinely amusing, as is his repartee with the crowd, but it was easy to see that Copin was, in his preview week, still testing what worked

TW Rating 3/5
