Live Review: The Battle for Icetopia

The whole enterprise, produced by Alex Hardy and written and directed by Adam Larter has a wonderful "We can't believe we are doing this" atmosphere. It is a glorious triumph of collaborative effort.

Review: Tony Law and Friends in the Battle For Icetopia

It's a big, bold and fun show, and a step into territory that most comedians would literally fear to tread. It's reassuring to know that a pulse still beats in the live comedy world away from the weekly treadmill of the clubs.
