Dan Antopolski
(editor's intro) You can't say anything any more. Well, actually you probably can. That well-known stand-up comedian Dame Maureen Lipman's comments about cancel culture threatening to "wipe out" comedy filled the comments pages yesterday. Her remarks were widely dismissed in the comedy community who noted, for example, that a number of comics talking about being cancelled had TV shows, podcasts and Twitter accounts to talk about being cancelled.
When you’ve been seeing comedy shows back to back for over a week themes and subjects start to emerge and knit together. I left Kiri Pritchard-McLean’s show in which she touches on her recent break up (and Sara Pascoe was in the audience - her show is also about her split) and walked into Dan Antopolski’s show, which had a big chunk about his break up.
Versatile genius Dan Antopolski could be 2017’s comeback kid. He hasn’t done the Fringe for a few years but back in the day he did various sketch shows and stand-up sets and picked up numerous nominations for being hilariously funny and brimming over with ideas. This year’s show, Return of the Dan Antopolski, is about “change, pain, honour and gain”. He is older and wiser and, quite possibly, funnier than ever. And still brimming over with ideas.
