Al Prodgers: A ONE NIGHT STAND (UP)
Prodgers works best playing to an audience a bit brighter than the average
drunk pub crowd, so luckily, this DVD was shot in front of a pretty switched-on
Bryanston bunch. It’s great to see a comic be funny about everything from taxi
drivers, crime and his half-Afrikaans heritage, to women, sex and gay rights,
without just doing stereotypes. Professionally shot and well edited (though we’re
not sure it needs the slightly corny intro piece), the crowd obviously had as
much fun as we did. We dug Kedibone Mulaudzi on the bonus track, too – he comes
off better than he does on the Downtown DVD
