San Jose Strip Clubs: Rule Of Three: The Sketch-Com
The storyline is a simple one, friendless Simon played by James Card is trying to arrange his own birthday party with the aid of his sister Ruth (Roisin Rae) and her partner Ben (Brooks Livermore). The narrative is unremarkable but what makes this production unique is the vast range of supporting characters played by the trio. I lost count at character number 18. The direction is impressive with each character distinct and well-developed even the smaller roles are carefully written and performed.
We meet a couple of relationship gurus who work their way into the audience, battling for the affections of the front row to make each other jealous. A bodybuilder is a particularly impressive comedy creation; Livermore plays this hapless wannabe stud with a delicate touch and makes the unlikable endearing. We’ve also got tramps, pizza delivery men, power -lunching salesmen, Australian barmen, dating agency staff, strippers and bosses with a fetish for nostrils. It is a whirlwind of personas all played brilliantly by the tiny cast.
