News and Reviews for this Show

August 21, 2024    The Scotsman

Andy Zapp knows more than most about each of these things and is very generous in the sharing of his knowledge. He is, it would seem, getting increasingly potty-mouthed as he gets older. He has also developed an in-depth, close up and personal knowledges of hormone replacement creams and patches. There are immediate challenges for Andy – a goodly proportion of his audience have not heard of Ian Dury and most of them are strangers to Oscar Wilde. Strange combination in an opening routine, you might think, but that is the kind of show this is.

We get peeing in the sink and colonisation, drugs on the NHS and chubbies in priority seats and every so often he apologises for not having started the show yet. To say the show is sexually graphic in its language is like saying heroin is relaxing. It is quite something watching him perched on his high chair chucking little shock grenades at us. It is fun, watching an older bloke taking his naughty parts for a gallop. You will never see a picture of an aardvark again without thinking of Andy Zapp. Or, indeed, order a KFC.
