Sold Out Edinburgh Fringe 2024

For something so foul-mouthed and filthy, this has to be described as a breath of fresh air. Not for the faint-hearted, it’s unhinged, off the hook, unmanaged and uncensored. Never the same two nights running. And just the right side of offensive. Depending on one’s perspective, obvs. Probably the only show to survive a wrong – Hitler-related – turn.

It’s a bit like stumbling into the Late & Live of yesteryear, except it’s only 8.30pm. Kyle Legacy and Dean Coughlin are our hosts and anyone who’s followed the goings-on at Liverpool’s Hot Water Club these last few years will be familiar with these two already.

From the get-in to some jumping hip-hop, feelgood reigns supreme and these lads don’t allow things to flag. The language is industrial but with a scouse accent it’s almost poetic. In a rhythmic sense, anyway. The shots land relentlessly and after the first fifteen minutes everyone’s looking – nearly crying – at each other in a punch-drunk comic stew, even the poor victims in the front row. After the ‘get-to-know-you’ intro the audience suggestions are addressed; we’ve all scribbled suggestions onto some pink post-it notes on the way in. ‘What’s the most scouse thing about you?’, ‘Is the Liver bird real?’ ‘A Chicken’s posterior – discuss’, (I paraphrase), but ‘Bankers With Brollies’ threatens to hold up proceedings for a bit… as if. It rollicks along without a pause before they hand over the mic to Kie Carson and Paul Savage who do their best with frighteningly short slots but it’s at odds with the tone and tempo set by the hosts. Little matter, for they do enough to entice us to grab flyers on the way out for Big Naked Comedy Show, Hopes Under The Hammer and Queer Comedy Chaos.

The dynamic duo return to round off the show with a last glance at some of the post-it notes, possibly the champagne moment being the dismissal of the Alex Ferguson suggestion… or the similar treatment doled out to the idea that Liverpool FC need to spend an eye-watering amount of money on some Swedish bloke presently at the Toon. Click Here For Review

Kyle Legacy - The King of Comedy (UK)

Reviewed by: Fringefeed

Review by Glen Pendlebury | 25 January 2025
If you’re looking for a comedy show that feels more like a chaotic fever dream than a traditional stand-up set, The King of Comedy by Kyle Legacy is your ticket to madness.

A self-proclaimed LeBron James of comedy (but funnier and whiter), Legacy delivers a show that’s equal parts slam dunk and off-the-wall insanity. From the moment he takes the stage, Legacy’s energy is electric. His ability to connect with the crowd is unparalleled, turning heckles into punchlines and strangers into co-stars.

This isn’t just a comedy show—it’s a live experiment in how far an audience can be pushed into the realm of the unexpected. No two shows are the same, and that’s exactly the point. Legacy doesn’t just tell jokes; he pulls them out of a hat literally like some kind of deranged magician. Whether riffing on multicultural observations, spinning improvised stories, or dancing his way into absurdity, he keeps the audience guessing—and laughing—every step of the way.

One moment, he’s cracking sharp one-liners, and the next, the room has somehow transformed into an impromptu dance club. Expect chaos. Expect brilliance. Expect the unexpected. There’s a raw, unpredictable charm to Legacy’s performance that sets him apart from your standard comedy circuit staples.

His crowd work is unmatched, and his quick wit ensures every moment feels fresh and alive. You’re not just watching a show; you’re part of it, swept up in the whirlwind of his infectious energy. With The King of Comedy, Kyle Legacy proves why he’s earned his place as a staple of the comedy scene. It’s bold, it’s wild, and it’s absolutely hilarious.

If you want a night out that’s as unpredictable as it is side-splittingly funny, don’t miss this one-of-a-kind comedic ride. Just be prepared—this isn’t your average stand-up show. It’s comedy on steroids, and it’s nothing but net. Click Here For Review
