Count Arthur Strong's Forgotten Egypt

Skip to page: 1 | 2

Superb. I want to have his children.

Lorraine Allison, May 2003


Saw Count Arthur at Edinburgh and he was bloody excellent - a tour de force! Will definitely be booking in for his forthcoming biblical odyssey.

Quin Hughes, May 2003


The comedy of his 'lecture' has a slow burn, cumulative effect and, though chortlesome at the time, I found myself tittering long after the show. Exquisite.

Cathie James, February 2003


Saw the Count again, this time at the Leicester Comedy Festival. Comic genius is an understatement. This character has massive potential. He sould tour the UK. The quiet moments whilst the Count regains his train of thought are a masterpiece.

Karl Havard, February 2003


I have never laughed so much in years. Definitely an acquired taste.

Karl, January 2003


Bloody marvellous. I was in pain from laughing too much.

T Stom, January 2003


I like the sound of Wendy Allison.

Count Arthur Strong, September 2002


Smaller doses of 30 seconds would be bearable.

Wendy Allison, August 2002


I'd travel across continents of piping hot deserts to see this man perform (shame I couldn't make to Edinburgh however!).

Microsoftie, August 2002


Have just returned from the Leicester Comedy Festival Preview show - and my first encounter with the count. This is an act you either click with or you don't. Personally I thought he was fantastic, I had tears of laughter running down my face as the Count played both parts in his Dracula movie. The character is acutely observed and probably suffered from playing in such a big venue (as did a couple of the other acts) but there is no doubting this comic character is having the potential to become a classic, given the right opportunities. Fantastic.

Craig Bird, March 2002


The worst show I saw at the Fringe this year - and I saw quite a few. A fine idea for a character but the script was bloody dire.
