Tuesday, March 16th, 2010 by comedy_admin
Cracking Up is an innovative comedy show coming to the Soho Theatre, London W1 on 19 and 27 April at 8pm, following hit performances across London and Surrey in 2009.
This hugely entertaining show takes a light hearted look at when life gives you a bit of a kicking. Hosted by professional comedian John Ryan (winner of the Edinburgh Highlight Award) it stars comedian Gareth Berliner and actors Sean Kearney and Jason Webb. Sketches are written by Michael Wicherek, Artistic Director Box Clever Theatre.
The show has received outstanding plaudits from previous audiences and media critics:
“Great fun, warm, thought provoking, refreshing & very, very funny”
Jon Myles, Editor, Irish Post
“Ballsy, brilliant, breaking the barriers”.Charlie Jordan, BBC W Midlands
“I’m there laughing, I’m there Cracking. It’s Great!” http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/8329828.stm
“Very entertaining & poignant. Some good belly laughs!” Audience member, Epsom Playhouse
The show sets out to lift the lid on mental health using a sensitive combination of comedy and drama sketches. The show is being played on 19 and 27 April to coincide with National Depression Awareness Week - a campaign run by the Depression Alliance.
John Ryan says: “Comedy is a great way of tackling issues that people may not ordinarily want to talk about. I know from shows I’ve done in the past around men’s health in general, that they are able to laugh at themselves and recognise that they could be a lot better at asking for help”.

Comedy Gossip
Bringing you the news you need to know!
Flanimals - Did someone call for a Mungefuddler?: Ricky Gervais’s Flanimals children’s books are to be made into an animated Hollywood movie. The comic will voice the lead character, the Puddloflaj, a spherical purple creature on a mission to change the world. He said: ‘It will be great to play a short, fat, sweaty loser for a change. A real stretch.’
The script will be written by Matt Selman, who has previously worked on The Simpsons, and be produced by Chris Meledandri, who also produced The Simpsons Movie and Ice Age.
If you aren’t familiar with Flanimals, here are a couple of gems:
Coddleflop – a mushy puddle with eyes
Offledermis – a Flanimal born inside-out to avoid its own smell
Munge Fuddler – a crab-like Flanimal that ‘fuddles’ everything it sees
Jim Davidson - Hanging out to dry?: Making a return to TV following his ill fated ’shirt-lifter’ remarks on Hell’s Kitchen. Jim Davidson’s one-off reality show ‘So You Think I’m An A***hole’, is coming to Virgin 1. Davidson will meet a number of famous gay, black and female mentors who will challenge his material and try to change his views. The show climaxes with a performance in Dubai, will he have taken any comments on board regarding his material? The results remain to be seen, can a leopard change his spots?
