A standup comedy show for anyone who has had a Grandad
Standup Comedian Matt Price spent 18 months training to win a trophy to honour the memory of his Grandad – Raging Bill Price - after he found some boxing trophies in his Grandad’s attic.
As Kate Copstick from the Scotsman said of the show when she reviewed it at the Edinburgh Festival, “It is a story-telling, grandad-loving, face-punching, gangster-reminiscing, nursery-rhyme-singing, tear in yer eye, laugh out loud joy of an hour…”
She also described Matt’s interaction with the crowd as “beyond impressive.”
The show isn’t actually about boxing, there is a lot more to it than that. But you will definitely want to know what happens next. Most amateur fighters have their first fight within a few months. It took Matt 18 months before he was “ready.” So how and why does a painfully shy 21 year old go to a boxing gym and spend so long pursuing a sport he has zero talent for?
Why does he hate Humpty Dumpty but love karaoke?
