If you like your comedy dark and edgy then this is the show for you. If you are in need of a ‘safe space’ then probably not! Radu Isac isn’t afraid to push boundaries and buttons. Yet as he explains he wants to keep the audience onside and still like him. He says that he got into comedy because he realised he could say things that might offend but still keep friends if he said he was joking!
I found it refreshing that at a time when comedy is coming under pressure to conform Radu talked about difficult subjects like depression, suicide, and male sexual desire. He did this in a way that revealed some truths through the humour. He is a very skilled comedian with a dry wit.
The audience loved it and I think you will too.
