Review by Steve Bennett

Dubliner Gar Murran is perhaps still too new to know better, but he bases much of his set in the over-familiar world of daytime TV or how men always perform too quickly in bed. But in the second half of his brief set, the gags prove stronger as he opens up about his relationship with his emotionally distant father who used to beat him as a child. This honesty, referring to something that most people can relate to on some level, provided a solid base for humour, even if it is too little, too late.
