The Very Best of Slaughterhouse Live

Tongue In Cheek Comedy Management

So, it turns out seeing ‘Two Fat Folkers’ singing “I’m Gay” is something I would pay to see again and again. The same Fat Folkers’ rendition of the Lancashire hotpot song might just have been one of the highlights of the entire Brighton fringe; crude, yes, but excellently performed - the only bad thing was that it had to come to an end. This talented double act brought a number of deranged characters to life and with the aid of a couple of unfortunate audience members and a string of un-PC songs, created an exuberant atmosphere amongst the small and intimate crowd. Even the video interludes during character changes were brilliant, and added to the show’s overall quality that would put any BBC3 comedy to shame.
