Live Review

Mat Ewins sets the bar high for a relatively new act, with a fluid gag-driven set, delivered with astute timing. As he trotted through his personal bugbears, from nightclubs and the WKD culture to his hatred of working in KFC, he is never far from a solid punchline, with a couple of especially memorable gags. His stage manner, too, is engagingly assured for a comedian so raw.

One of the most exciting new acts I've seen in a very long time.

Mat has performed at my Just Stand-Up gig twice now, and i have also done gigs where he has mc’d. He is a very good comic with great audience skills, after both gigs members of the audience came up too me and told me to ask him back!

I couldn't disagree with the above comment any more. I saw him at Reading earlier this month and his routine was very sharp and his punchlines were brilliant. I guess the above comment is by someone trying to be something they are not. i.e. a critic.

Died on his arse tonight. Panicky and his routine was all over the place. Tried to be something he is not. Ie. Funny.
