Pat Burtscher at the Just For Laughs London showcase

Note: This review is from 2010

Review by Steve Bennett

Pat Burtscher struggled to fully engage the audience. He’s a relaxed Canadian stand-up – perhaps a little too relaxed, as he seemed singularly unconcerned that his set-ups were hopelessly windy, with far too much flannel before he even approached the punchline.

Yes, we all know bawling babies are an annoyance on flights – so the quicker he could get round to his witty solution, the better. Ultimately, his ideas are inventive and funny; but he needs some focus to make the most of them.
