Comedy Festival 2018: Tommy Little feasts on the ridiculous in The Last King of Stupid ★★★★

IT’S crude, and downright dirty at times, but Tommy Little’s comedic charm and quick wit makes this a very well-polished hour of comedy.

TOMMY Little is the type of guy we all knew at high school.

The loveable larrikin, always wanting to make the others in class laugh — no matter how smutty, crude, or downright dirty he has to get.

But in The Last King of Stupid, Little shows why years of experience have taught him to hone his talents and quick wit, into a very well-polished hour of comedy.

DAMIEN POWER: FOOD FOR THOUGHT SERVED WITH BELLY LAUGHS

AUNTY DONNA: POWDER KEG TRIO A CLASS ACT

The self-confessed “priddle-aged” (pre-middle aged) Melburnian-born comedian see-saws through what life is like to be slightly out of touch with the youth of today, while being out of his depth when dealing with the elderly as well.

Tommy Little has entered “priddle age” in The Last King of Stupid.

His stories from his time hosting The Project has given Little added confidence and charisma on stage, which shows in his crowd interaction as well.

The Last King of Stupid isn’t trying to solve the world’s problems, but rather find a distraction from your lives to poke fun at the mundane and idiotic — which Tommy Little is an absolute master at.

JASON BYRNE: MASTER OF IMPROV RELIABLY BRILLIANT

DANIEL BURT: RAPID-FIRE GAGS MAKE LIGHT OF A GRIM PAST

His on-stage personality is very endearing, and even the more prudish of those in the crowd won’t be able to stop themselves from a devilish chuckle or five at all the ridiculousness that goes on during a Tommy Little show.
