Who's the comic with an ear for dialogue and a bod for sin? Damn right it's Triple Perrier Award Nominee, veteran Fringe sell-out and Winner of the 2009 Dave Award for Funniest Joke of the Fringe DAN ANTOPOLSKI with his seventh solo stand-up show. What can we expect from this tireless fringe innovator, elegant paragraph-crafter and award-winning one-liner merchant? Why not expect the unexpected and neglect to prepare for the expected which will then surprise you from behind, unless you have read this - or like Dan Antopolski, have mastered time travel!!!
Turn of the Century will definitely contain many high-quality stealable one-liners, sage remarks about life and bad-parenthood, and a rap about the benefits of laser ownership. Also as promised, actual time travel (forwards@1sec/sec)!

"I couldn't help but be impressed. Dozens and dozens of well-honed jokes...
I felt like I was watching someone who'd fully matured as a performer."
Paul MacInnes, THE GUARDIAN 2010 "Articulate, self-assured... with an ironic self-awareness...Antopolski's versatility wins you over." Ross Kinghorn, TVBOMB 2010 "An evening in his company seems guaranteed to be enjoyable... good old-fashioned jokes... underlined by his hyper-mobile facial expressions... a thoroughly enjoyable set that delights the crowd." Holly Williams, SPOONFED 2010 "A strong recommendation for a confidently entertaining hour." Siân Bevan, THE LIST 2010 "In his distinctively laid-back style of delivery, he tosses out inspired joke after joke... Both silly and strangely sophisticated, Antopolski's humour - and worldview - is totally unique and makes for a thoroughly enjoyable, if eccentric show." Beth Kahn, BROADWAY BABY 2010 "His writing is as inventive as ever ... Antopolski is not merely deadpan, but almost otherworldly on stage. It's the perfect platform for his sometimes surreal, often deliberately literal approach to life." James Kettle, THE GUARDIAN 2009 "Spectacular displays of verbal pyrotechnics ... A confident, splendidly silly and sometimes dazzling show." Stephanie Merritt, THE OBSERVER 2009 "No-one else has the same flair and assurance ... A rock-solid hour with punchlines galore." Ben Clover, LONDON IS FUNNY 2009 |
