Marcel Lucont, Londonist, 30th June 2016Review: Alexis Dubus
Dubus seems an amiable guy and you could sense the audience willing him on. It was a mildly diverting time, but I only chuckled twice and belly-laughed not at all.

His way with accents during this show suggests that could be more of a winner.
