Helen Keen – Original Review
Note: This review is from 2007
Review by Steve Bennett
Frightfully frightfully well-spoken newcomer Helen Keen aims for a darkly surreal set, including an odd routine about clowns and serial killers as well as bizarre ponderings about Queen Elizabeth I.She has a wandering style, with overly wordy set-ups she seems to lack confidence in, so the audience need to show a little patience as she talks around her esoteric topics.
uckily her punchlines are funny and distinctive, and she can deliver a sharp one-liner when needed, so that patience is rewarded. If only she could lose some of that unnecessary padding…
