uh0h is about zombies, pirates, robots and other cool party themes. Apart from awesome party themes, uh0h spews forth reviews, interviews, shows an occasional photograph (perhaps of something beautiful, something to eat or perhaps a lovely vintage number). Included are other musings arts-wankers, hipsters, night-time-lovers and otherwise-ok-people might enjoy or hate. Also we like flowers. So there.

Review - Andrew Lawrence - My Contemptible Life in a Gutter of Abject Desolation


Andrew Lawrence's debut at this year's festival is a fast paced 1 hour of slick dark humour. The title captures the tone of the show well. He draws the audience in from the start, it's like butter wouldn't melt in his mouth...but this Brit has a few tricks up his sleeve.

Andrew segways between observational and self deprecating comedy with a dark twist. He certainly has a way with words; as every day observations take on Dickensian/Poe like twists and turns which had the audience giggling away throughout the show.

Andrew Lawrence delivers a slick and fast paced one hour of comedy that's not for the squeamish.
