Evin Donohoe loves American politics. So much so he did what it took to land himself in the heart of the US 2012 National Election. And this is his story.
This show is not only for those well-versed of American politics. Evin adroitly delivers a fast paced overview of all the major players and policies explained through the medium of Hollywood aliens and superstars. This ensures the high-falutin’ political commentary is grounded in delightful and easily accessible allegory.
From door knocking on the pavements of swing states, to the rallies, the campaign rooms of the 2012 US election and the White House, Evin explores the complex National psyche underpinning American politics. Is the President of America synonymous with God on Earth?
It is joyful to be in the presence of someone who is unabashedly passionate. Evin Donohoe makes no apologies for his obsession. This is so much more than a comedy show; it’s a story of a personal journey. It’s also deeply informative. The pace of the show never drops; Evin demonstrates his skill as a performer utilizing a heady array of different story telling mechanisms. He packs an enormous amount of content into a single hour.
Get along to this frenetic hour of highly original political satire. You’ll not regret a vote for this up and coming Australian comic.
