Previous praise:
“Thoughtful and self-aware, some of the better stand-up you’ll see at this year’s Fringe” ★★★★ Broadway Baby
“His jokes keep up with his own frenetic pace. Make no mistake: this is a downright clever show. As someone who loathes seeing a punchline coming, I might as well have been blindfolded in the dark. Rory O’Keeffe is a comedy diamond.” ★★★★ Edinburgh 49+3
“Rory O’Keeffe is a refreshing wee marvel. This guy is definitely mid-blossom, on his way to being one of the better comedians around, and when you hear the sound-engineer still chuckling nine shows in, you just can tell that he’s gonna go far.” ★★★★ The Mumble
“Acutely well-observed and cringingly funny, this is comedy for a post-recession graduate generation, lumbered with expectations they have nowhere to put and a vague feeling that they might not be up to the task of real life.” Fest ★★★★
“Tightly composed and expertly delivered romp, articulating the woes of many a young graduate” EdFringeReview ★★★★★
“A strong gag-writing ability and a lively imagination.” Julian Hall, The Stage
“Lean, fat-free writing; there is a freshness of ideas and the gag rate is high.” Paul Fleckney, LondonIsFunny
“The writing is cutting-edge and original, both absolute genius and utterly hilarious.” ThreeWeeks ★★★★★
“O’Keeffe seems like one of the nicest guys hanging around at the Fringe. He’s dressed well, is extremely well spoken and would probably charm your mum within about five minutes of setting foot in the door. Plus he’s a pretty funny guy.”
EdFringeReview (this person awarded me “Comedian You Would Most Like To Meet Your Mother”, as part of a creepy blog called “Freya’s Fittest Men of the Fringe”. She gave the actual show 3 stars. )
