Simon Amstell Do Nothing Live (2010)


Release Year: 2010
Simon Amstell - Do Nothing Live 2010, recorded in Dublin.

Simon Amstell is an openly gay stand-up comedian who built a reputation in the UK for a very bitchy style of comedy when he hosted "Never Mind The Buzzcocks" on BBC2. "Do Nothing" could not be more different - it is largely about how we get used to playing a certain character and whether we can find the courage to change. He draws extensively upon his own sexuality to illustrate this, and inevitably, he is the butt of all of his own jokes. It is about as close as you can get to watching a man emotionally and philosophically disemboweling himself on stage. Not only will it make you laugh - it might well make you think as well!
“Amstell in the flesh is frank, philosophical and painfully funny. Able to wrestle gut-wrenching laughs out of his own existential angst.” - Evening Standard, London
"This is cerebral comedy backed up by a newfound depth of feeling. He’s the real deal, where philosophy collides with anxiety: where Heidegger meets Woody Allen." - The Guardian, London

Many thanks for making this superb video available. I've not had so many laughs since I can't remember when. Simon's self-deprecating and incredibly thoughtful humor is really amazing! That he is gay and beautiful to look at is just an added bonus.

I'd love to see more in this genre!

My best regards and thanks to you.
