This show pretty much delivers everything you expect from a top class ventriloquist. Paul Zerdin is not a stranger to the Edinburgh Fringe festival and although his material is laugh out loud, side-splitting funny, it is recycled content and has been used in his stand up gigs throughout the years.
If you’re a Zerdin Virgin then you are in for a treat: The use of 3 puppets brought to life with his genius voice-throwing skills adds up to be an hour of cram packed entertainment. Zerdin is a mastermind and in a league of his own in what he does, and in this show he really gets involved with the audience. Not only does Zerdin have talent, he is also genuinely funny, a great stand up comedian who happens to play with dolls for a living. And it works!
If you have seen Zerdin before then the shows content is nothing new. It’s all been done so please don’t hold your breath for jokes you haven’t heard before. But for the beginners don’t let that put you off, you won’t be disappointed!
The characters used in this show have personality, charm and tricks up their sleeves. You have been advised to take caution: you never know when little Sam or the granddad rapping MC Albert will go for you!
Be warned though if you manage to get a front row seat, you will not be safe from the witty antics and borderline remarks. Go and see this show, Zerdin is underrated and it’s well worth it.
