 I’m not really sure what to say about Simon Munnary, his show was just far to scary and strange for my liking. 

Yes it was funny, there was some good material there, but Munnary’s whose trick is to play with words just seemed to be too clever for his own good, and just made me loose interest a clock watch.

 A man dressed in orange, talking to you with a bucket on his head is not the average show by any means. During his set Simon goes through a great array of ideas and material and I laughed, but as Paul Daniels would say, not a lot.

 Simon I know has a cult following and if your into his humour, your going to have a brilliant time and laugh your head off. For me though it was just too off the wall, too zany and too unusual for me to enjoy.

 I came out wondering what I had just seen, if I’d liked it and if I enjoyed it, the answer to the latter two would be no, however I’m glad I caught a glimpse of some very alternative comedy.

 It’s difficult to say anything else about this show, I suppose I’d say its worth a watch just to see something completely different, but only if you have an hour to kill and are prepared to be confused and wondering should you be laughing or not.
