Pleasance Courtyard "beyond"
My brother and I went to see Shappi Khorsandi together, which was fitting considering the show was primarily about the relationship between Shappi and her older brother.
I enjoyed Shappi's anecdotes, I liked being able to find my brother and I in what she was saying. I didn't relate to everything Shappi said though, for instance, the desire to eat her baby, I do not share that trait, nor do I have a baby.
I'm not sure that the crowd were totally playing along, there were about 150 of us, give or take. I was sitting in the back row, right in the corner. I had the stairs in front of me so nobody's head was directly in view but I did feel very 'edgy' excuse the pun. But even the people who were I the middle of other audience members didn't seem to be taking part in the give/take relationship between comedian and audience. One thing I use to measure how much I like a comedian is if I "Belly laugh" you know, one of those hearty, unstoppable giggles, sadly I had no belly laughs.
