Dan Lees – Brainchild (Dan Lees)

By Ben Shannon | Published on Saturday 15 August 2015

This proved to be a rather entertaining and ridiculous hour, as Dan Lees attempted to answer some of the complex questions life brings up, in the most unconventional of ways. It’s physical comedy all right, and when Lees finally does speak, the piece begins to get even more complex. You’ll meet several interesting characters during the course of the show, all of which Lees performs with genuine passion and gusto. The show relies as much on the audience’s willingness to take part as it does on Lees’ ability, and once this group of show-goers had settled into the rhythm of things, the laughter began to build. Leave your inhibitions at the door to truly enjoy this eccentric performance; a basic knowledge of cheese would also help.

Underbelly until 31 Aug.
