Melbourne International Comedy Festival presents
Andrew Lawrence - Soul-Crushing Vicissitudes Of Fortune! (UK)
Synopsis
Double Edinburgh Fringe Comedy Award Nominee
BBC New Comedian of The Year
Fans of the darker breed of comedy found their niche at last year’s Comedy Festival with Andrew Lawrence, whose delightfully near-the-knuckle material and curmudgeonly worldview had tongues wagging furiously.
Andrew returns to this year’s festival with his acclaimed new show promising yet more highly articulate social commentary performed with his own distinctive oddball charm and unaffected honesty.
"Lawrence packs more laughs into one of his ninety second rants than most comics manage in half an hour" The Scotsman (UK)
"He’s The Funniest thing this critic has yet seen, no contest" The Telegraph (UK)
"Where he truly shines is in his bilious streams of relentlessly cutting, staggeringly creative invective: once he sets his beady black eyes on a target, the acrid volleys of dexterously florid abuse unleashed could strip paint. Once he gets a head of steam going, he’s simply brilliant- and yes, wildly offensive." Metro (UK)
