Nick Mohammed Is A Character Comedian Show type: Edinburgh Fringe 2008
Nick Mohammed Is A Character Comedian

Unlike Jal, I paid for the Pleasance Courtyard experience and didn't leave smiling. The first half hour just wasn't funny and I felt like walking out. Despite the heat in the venue Nick did seem to hit his stride after the 30 minute point. There was some clever continuity and use of props (and audience members) but i found his characterisations only mildly amusing. I'm afraid i could count the laughs on one hand. 2.5 out of 5 from me

Alfonso, August 2008


Myself and a few friends were given free tickets for Nick Mohammed's show after wandering into Pleasance one evening, and I have to say I was utterly suprised by how hilarious he was. His ability to stay in character and craft an actual being rather than a collection of themed gags was remarkable, far beyond that of most sketch-based shows I've seen. While, of course, some of the characters were more worthy than others, all of them frequently spurred the audience into deserving laughter. At the end of the show, by tying all his characters and audience interaction together, he created a remarkable finale that let the audience feel truly "in on the joke". All in all, a superb evening show.
