COMEDY
****

Birmingham lad David Morgan brings his debut show to the fringe and wins over his audience with comedy and pathos.

David draws on his personal life story to give us stories about always being in the chorus of the many musical theatre productions he took part in during his childhood and teen years alongside his fixation with a boy name Clint that leads to a rather scary stalkerish photo board. He also takes swipes at the fact he is dyslexic and being very comfortable in own skin as he admits he is happy to be an out and proud gay man.

One of the endearing facts about David is his humour is never nasty and he includes his audience in comedy asides but it’s never at the expense of the audience themselves. The tone of the hour long show changes, as he recants the story of his coming out at school that had a mixed reaction especially from the headmaster who suggests to David’s mother that perhaps he shouldn’t be head boy any more due to his homosexuality. David goes on to tell us how his mother sprang to his defence ensuring that David got to be who he was on merit alone.

The added pathos alongside the humour made for a refreshing comedy hour and one which deserved to be seen. Catch this cute boy in action while you can!
