Totally Ninja

Review by Fred Fletch | 29 Aug 2012

Although I have a well established hatred of Sorcerers, I can wholeheartedly recommend this show. It's scientific fact that Wizards generally come in 2 flavors: THE EVIL KIND, and 'the kind whose moustaches tickle your dick', David is the rare 3rd kind: THE COMPLETELY FUCKING AWESOME KIND. His pockets don't smell of dead doves and you are almost 99% guaranteed to leave the show without a single playing card in your asshole.

I saw him last week and loved every magical inch of him. The show was a combination of comedy, music and mind-reading so hard, not even my toughest Hulk-Hogan-face could keep the secrets of the card I picked out of this Necromancers grasp.

There is audience interaction that goes about as far as 'throwing stuff' and 'touching him' which is a well needed break from the performers who leave you covered in clown lipstick and crying in a shower.

It is an unusual show with a sweet venue and fantastic atmosphere. Although it was free, almost everyone donated at the end. Not only did he deserve it, but he can fucking kill you with wizard lightning. Don't be put off by the fact that it's a free show. I know that 'Free Show' usually means 'NOT GOOD', but some shows (like this one) are absolutely awesome. Free Fringe is kind of like fucking the Pointer Sisters; You've got a 1 in 4 chance of being inside something that isn't a Centaur.
