Robby Who? - FRINGE XX

Robby Who? @ Petite Café Campus, Venue # 2. It takes two to tango, and three is a crowd, -here we have three stand-up comics all on stage within under thirty minutes and still the laugh measure up against the stage time ratio doesn't hit the laugh meter button. Robby Hoffman alone would have been far better with some substance material that was better developed. Not that there isn't potential for some serious humour here because there is. It isn't enough to play to the home town family and friends crowd like a 'wedding party roast MC'. We are reminded at the opening that this is a Fringe and not the Just For Laughs stage; but if you want to hit the big time and play with the big leaguers you got'ta pull out all the stops and not hold back. 2 cents.
