Bob Doolally: Straight From The Bawbag

Article by Ciaran Woods | 25 Mar 2009

It’s always fascinating seeing a character come to life onstage. Ten minutes ago I was chatting upstairs with the comedian now in front of me. Ten minutes ago he wasn’t an ageing ex-football manager. Ten minutes ago he didn’t have an audience in the palm of his hand.

Bob Doolally a very strong comedian. His in-character improvisations sparkle with good natured intelligence. His set is well thought out and well put together. There’s only one thing you need to consider.

Do you like football? If the answer is yes, watch this show. It's that simple. If you don’t like football, big chunks of his satire will fly well over your head. Still, he may have chosen a good market - apparently this 'football' thing is very popular with the younger generation. If this is you, watch this guy. You’ll laugh your brightly coloured socks off.
