News and Reviews for this Show

Whilst the show ostensibly did not go completely according to plan, Adam Greene still successfully entertained his audience, as laughter was a constant force in the venue. Despite the overbearing heat in what was essentially a glorified cupboard rammed with chairs, a disappointed sigh erupted at the end of the hilarious Wizard of Ozempic. Greene combines the age-old phenomenon of fat jokes with modern culture references of Ozempic to create a witty tale about his life.

Dripping in both sweat and comedy, Greene cleverly interacted with his audience, hitting the perfect level of audience participation and even stopping to ask if an audience member was okay after sneezing a few times. Through his attentive nature, Greene established an intimate atmosphere, truly enticing his audience into his life story, as you could vividly imagine each tale he shared. From his doctor’s appointments, to him carrying his chihuahua in a bag on the streets of London, you couldn’t help but laugh. This particular tale drew overwhelming fits of cackling and chortling from the audience as Greene’s wonderous storytelling emphasised the ridiculousness and absurdity of such an image.

Additionally, the show embodied a typical comedy set as Greene embraced the brash, arrogant stereotype of a comedian as he detailed the workshopping process of creating and writing a show for the fringe. As a part of this he explained how his performance had very little to do with the classic film The Wizard of Oz which the show’s title is a pun of. To accommodate for this, he made some stilted jokes related to the film and moved on in a hilarious manner, which demonstrated how much a show can develop and change from its original thought.

Overall, Adam Greene’s The Wizard of Ozempic is a witty hour of poking fun and crowd interaction infused with contemporary cultural references. Consequently, it is a wonderful hour of fun, even if it has nothing to do with The Wizard of Oz, and even though there was no wizard hiding in a cupboard for the grand finale of the show… Click Here For Review
