Review: Romesh Ranganathan

An outstandingly-scripted performance for which those in attendance were no doubt maxin' and relaxin' to an evening of constant comedy gold.

Romesh Ranganathan review

Curmudgeonly but sympathetic, Ranganathan reels off anecdote after anecdote that showcase a grumpiness which many people demonstrably identify with. It's not genre-defining stand-up for the ages, occasionally nudging towards generic wisdom, but wholly entertaining, seasoned with more personal vulnerabilities, and delivered with ease and no-frills charm.
