ED2011 Theatre Review: The 2 Sides Of Eddie Ramone (Chris Sullivan)
In this thoughtful piece, Eddie Ramone (Chris Sullivan) reflects on the strange duality of a comedian’s life where one moment he may be the darling of a crowd, and the next, sitting alone and gloomy in a darkened bar. His initial 15 minute stretch of bad stand-up is revealed to be purely an act when he begins to slip between his “autopilot” stage persona and his ongoing internal thoughts. He holds the rapt attention of the audience throughout the story of his personal life, but the true interest of the show lies in the contrast of his shallow stage persona with the gradually revealed pain and sorrow which colour the life of even some the most successful show-people.
theSpaces at Surgeons Hall, 6 – 27 Aug (not 7, 14, 21), 6.00pm (7.00pm), £5.00, fpp307.

Wish I coulda seen it Chris, seems I'm bypassing London this time... trust all is well.
ReplyDeleteGet someone to record video sometime.
ReplyDeleteyou should take it on the road and play the muni arts center pontypridd (my town) :)
ReplyDeleteall is well folks but I wouldn't film it - a pal offered to video it in London but I said no. A play is a play and a movie is a movie and I have never liked plays being filmed.
ReplyDeleteI would love to do the Muni Arts Centre in Pontypridd if you can try to fill the place for me and there is a good technician to do the lights and the sound - email me with details.
