Edinburgh Reviews: Clever Peter

Quite straightforwardly the funniest student sketch review I have ever seen. Well written, well performed, and simply very funny, this is an hour of perfectly formed comedy. It doesn't do crappy little smart-alec throwaway bits (except for when it does and they're very funny), it makes the effort to actually provide us with an over-arching little plot device and a reason for the show's name, and just when you think it's going a bit clever, a man in a gorilla costume appears and has rapes someone.

I don't really have a lot to say about this show, other than that everyone who likes sketch shows should go see it, and that I would be surprised if none of the three guys in the show go on to greater things.

5/5
