Paul Sinha, Komedia, Brighton, March 30
6:00am Tuesday 1st April 2008
Paul Sinha is almost too clever for his own good.
In this admirably crafted, hugely inventive hour-in-the-life of the UK's premier "gay, Bengali, GP-turned-stand-up", the wit came in so many forms and from so many angles, it took a few seconds to really process it. A few seconds Sinha rarely granted.
What started as a line about the nonsensical misogyny surrounding women in football had morphed into a witty and multi-pronged take on stereotyping before you had time to think: "Look out Stewart Lee."
It was exhilarating to be saturated in such a hailstorm of humour but invariably meant playing catch-up in place of appreciating the next gag.
And there was so much material to enjoy - all delivered with the charming, slightly nerdy eloquence of someone who could probably talk their way in or out of any situation. Catch him if you can.
