Julian Clary review
Is his humour evolving? Perhaps not as much as it should; however, I wasn't expecting the show to end with a very post-ironic number with the refrain "It's Not Cool to be a Queer", which even name-checks Brianna Ghey, a song that stuns us into a sad silence that not even the arrival of glitter falling from heaven can quite restore. All in all, it's an unusual evening's entertainment, not without hilarity and skill, but I'm wondering how much longer this much-loved comedian can make this level of content last.
