Josh Widdicombe Review-Sundial Theatre Feb 2nd 2013

Josh was at the Sundial Theatre on the 2nd of Feb and we of the Scene went down to watch. Recently Josh has been appearing on “The Last Legs With Adam Hills” and has his following. On the night 220 people were in the Sundial theatre, enjoying the opening act and getting ready for the main show. Families with teenage kids dotted the crowd as well as a broad segment of Cirencester’s demography. When a TV act comes to town best not to miss it!

Through the night we learned Josh didn’t quite get the part of a Hobbit in the most recent rendering, despite going for audition and being told he was just about tall enough. Whilst being amusing it was quite hard to pin point any joke Josh said, it was more a monologue with anecdotes and references to pop culture. Without the foil of a panel, Josh was the centre of attention far from his TV role. Hardcore Widdicombettes loved it, and so they should as it’s not likely he’ll be doing 200 seaters again sometime soon.
