We enjoyed a night of no-holds-barred humour on the tennis court for the iconic boutique lodge.
Pikes Ibiza is definitely recognized for their mischievous character and tongue-in-cheek sense of humour, where simpler to coordinate a stand-up funny nights as compared to wacky boutique lodge?
Last night – monday 16 July – watched another instalment from the eye-wateringly amusing Lust For Laughs bring underway. The month-to-month show views an eclectic line-up of international funnymen and lady try the level. Here’s the interior line.
Stand-up funny is not anything normally associated with the White Isle and performances were few in number, so the celebration ended up being some a particular treat on all of our happenings calendar!
From 21:00 ahead, guests started to stack on the iconic Pikes Ibiza tennis court, getting their particular seating on a single red tarmac that late king symbol Freddie Mercury familiar with appreciate a game title whenever residing at the stone ‘n’ roll lodge.
We were welcomed with a crisp glass of bubbly from show sponsors Gigglewater Prosecco, an excellent touch that definitely put into the sense of celebration as we seated straight down. It ought to are years since I attended a comedy concert, so I had been anticipating an evening of sexy jokes and warped humour.
Managed by Brit comedian James Regal, the line-up for nights showcased a major international lineup of talent including sassy Argentinian Irene Meneguzzi, this lady man countryman Andres Fajngold, Kiwi John Allis and, the headliner, Irishman Mike Rice.
Opening the tv show, the host James warned the viewers that there is purely “no humor when it comes to medicines” – due to the fact, apparently, the favorable folks of Ibiza already know just everything to know about this specific subject! However, other than that, practically no subject is off the desk.
First of all ended up being Irene, who regaled the viewers using the relatable struggles to be a modern-day girl simply transformed 40, with all of that requires: Botox, treatment, Tinder and emotionally traumatising trips to IKEA with prospective future husbands.
Subsequent, dry-as-a-bone funnyman Andres had you in stitches together with his deadpan, hapless figure. It took me an effective ten full minutes to work through whether he had been really putting on work – somebody allow the man an award for his acting chops!
After a brief period – and rapid Gigglewater top-up, now testing the delicious rose variety – it absolutely was brand new Zealander John’s move to take to the mic. The guy began really, but, the guy risked shedding the audience as he insulted Italian pizza. I enjoy a dark feeling of humour, but we all have our limitations!
Headliner Mike Rice delivered the no-holds-barred finale of the nights. After beginning relatively Computer with myths of an Irish childhood, he veered into highly questionable territory, visibly appreciating making the market cringe.
From “shagging” trout towards the Virgin Mary, the edge Festival musician actually went because of it – and I also’m pretty sure the web police would are available and locate me if I duplicated some of his even more darker material here.
In general, all of our nights mirth and comedic mayhem at Pikes Ibiza had been an air of clean air. The faint-hearted, it will be ideal eliminated, however if you would like your humour somewhat freaky, its a fantastic night out with your pals get it on.
