Comedy review: Dave Gorman at the Brighton Dome

The king of high-concept stand-up has dropped the big ideas -- and he has never been more enjoyable.

Review: Dave Gorman

Long-running TV series often end in a feature-length special, so Dave Gorman's latest tour could well be seen as an elongated swansong for Modern Life Is Goodish, with the Prince Of Pedants offering 90 minutes of methodically forensic observational comedy in the same format that's entertained viewers these past five years.

Dave Gorman review

The show is enjoyable, it is fun, it engages the grey cells without taxing them, and it is a safe pair of hands for signature comedy in a live arena. And has a most memorable giraffe joke in it.

Review: Dave Gorman, Playhouse Theatre, Edinburgh

As consistently good as Dave Gorman's television show Modern Life is Goodish was, the show's ending after five years has an upside. Gorman has now returned to touring, and With Great Powerpoint Comes Great Responsibilitypoint retains much of the TV show's format, with its investigative analysis of the unexamined everyday and the Powerpoint-style on-screen punchlines he originally developed live.
