Reviews

Luke Benson at the 2010 Hackney Empire new act final
Live Review
Hackney Empire

Luke Benson is a promising new stand-up whose confidence and delivery has improved vastly over his short career. The material tonight however, was generally uninspiring, relying on puns and one-liners above the more maturely written anecdotes that comprise his usual set.

A likeable performer, he has the potential to go further if he can achieve better consistency. His Abu Hamza line came too early in the evening for the audience, leading to some shocked groans, although whether this was because of the sensitive subject matter or the convoluted set up is unclear.

His material about being a genuine giant faired better, while his job interview routine displayed some more inventive writing, and boasted one of the best lines of the evening.

Very promising newer act with great lines and an appealing stage persona. I expect him to go far.

Weak puns and jokes a few friends good cobble together over a few pints in the pub.

I think Luke is great, he is my Big Bro and it may take a while for you to catch on to his jokes but there funny when you do. YouRockBigBro x

Luke is a brilliant comedian and one of the very best mcs on the circuit at the moment.
