What comedian Fabbri really needs is more comic fabric to patch up his routine.
He has a good laidback demeanour and is completely comfortable interacting with the audience - which in this case included the gift horse of a Gary Glitter impersonator.
Mainly based around Fabbri's childhood experiences, from other families' middle class affectations to being a ""retard" at school, recounting his adolescent antics came easily to the wide-eyed boyish comic.
A sore throat and script still on stage seemed to have afflicted Fabbri (as it did the previous night's stand-up at Three And Ten - perhaps there's something in the beer?) There were plenty of laughs, but Fabbri needs a lot more structure woven into his act and a stronger overall theme.
