Paul has a magnetic attraction. He draws his audience in with a deadly combination of boyish charm, sharp anger andwoeful loneliness2.) Paul has his finger firmly to the pulse of the audience, delivering lines and jokes that jab you straight in the funny bone,sending you into spasms of giggles. And his ability to (emotionally) expose himself on stage is at times startling and almostunnerving, but utterly captivating.3.) Incredibly real and raw Paul Snodgrass' I'm so lonely is a comedy show well worth seeing. Like all good comedians hetaps into the everyday milestones and occurrences that we all go through, renders them to be quite ridiculous and then injectsthem with a good dose of humour. So don't let Mr Snodgrass stay lonely and go and catch his last two shows at the Baxter.4.) Last night was the opening of Cape Town comic Paul “Snoddie” Snodgrass’ one-man stand-up show, entitled “I’m SoLonely.” I went and literally pissed myself. From “sluts saving lives” to “Southern Suburbs rugby jocks,” this is NOT to bemissed. Only two nights left

5.) Last night we attended the opening night of Snoddie’s first one man show ‘I’m So Lonely’ and let me tell you sommensommen, it was hilarious! The dude is incredibly funny, exceptionally rude and one hundred percent correct on all issues fromgirls moving in to arsehole bochey chaanas.6.) Seriously, it’s like Defending The Caveman on cocaine after a bender. There are no holds barred and that is exactly why I,and the rest of the audience, loved the ‘angry leprechaun’ so much. And his bit on the Southern Suburb rugby boiiis! Comenow, it was too much. He nailed them so badly if I were one of them I’d be afraid to pop my collar or wear Ed Hardy everagain.COMEDY CV--Performed at the Edinburgh Festival in 2006, the largest arts festival in the world.
