Eddie Izzard Stripped Review

I have been a fan for years and enjoyed his quirky humour in the past. However, this was hugely disappointing. Well over half the material was anti-religious, based on his new found atheism. When he was agnostic the religious jokes somehow seemed funnier but the intent has now changed, much to the detriment humour. Also, his style which was fresh, new and cutting edge 10+ years ago is now a little tired and blunt.



One other point, Wembley Arena may be OK (just) as a concert venue, but for a one man comedy show it is pathetic. With the majority of the audience having to sit >100m from the stage you might as well just buy the DVD and watch it on your own screen rather than the one at Wembley (and save yourself a lot of money). Never again!
