Andrew Maxwell interview

Andrew Maxwell is a chatty man - he talks at speed - but he's both funny and informed.

The Andrew Maxwell three minute interview

Andrew Maxwell is a chatty man - he talks at speed - but he's both funny and informed. He riffs on the weighty subjects of Scottish Independence, the Irish Potato Famine, sectarianism and his beloved Hibernian Football Club in a highly humorous, passionate manner. Agree or not, he knows what he's talking about. Martin Walker distils his chat with a true satirist.

Andrew Maxwell review

His skill, astuteness and wit means Andrew Maxwell deserves to be much better known beyond the circle of comedy aficionados; although it's also his down-to-earth experiences as a globe-trotting road comic that give him such a brilliant everyman perspective that's on clear display here.

Review: Andrew Maxwell, Soho Theatre

Last night's gig was a jamboree bag of Halloween wigs, free sweets and relaxed but deceptively sharp banter from the convivial Dubliner.
