Martin Mor – How Do You Like Your Blue-eyed Boy Mister Death? (Martin Mor / The Stand Comedy Club)
By Ankur Shah | Published on Thursday 15 August 2013
Somehow, Martin Mor manages to be both the most insulting, and the most genuinely kind person you’re ever likely to meet. The comic has found the perfect mixture of pre-rehearsed material and audience interaction, keeping the entire crowd captivated and chuckling throughout. Few can think as quickly on their feet and deliver in such a natural manner, yet Mor made it look easy, seamlessly interchanging between embarrassing audience members and telling bizarre tales about his own life. Crudeness was the one constant in a set that discussed just about anything and everything, but to his credit Mor seemed amazingly aware of any subtle change in the audience’s mood. Unconventional and underrated, spare this man your time: he will make it worthwhile.
The Stand Comedy Club, until 25 Aug (not 12), 8.20pm.
tw rating 4/5 | [Ankur Anil Shah]
