Danny Worthington provides very funny anecdotes about coming out as a gay man and the warmth and mirth from this is increased by the fact that you can tell this man is speaking from the heart. I was honestly incomprehensible with laughter at some points and it's the sheer embraceable aspect of the performance that shows through. A brave concept. Sorrow is, in turn, witty, aloof, banal and, in the most hilarious parts of his act, verging on being committed. The section involving the return from a holiday with his Mum had tears streaming from my eyes. BAlthough the material is sometimes completely out of left-field, it made me laugh. Genuinely. A fun, frantic and festival-friendly way to spend an hour of your life and a fiver of your cash.
