[ATTENDED: October 7, 2023] Aunty Donna
I don’t recall what made me check out Aunty Donna one night. But the opening skit of the first episode had me cracking up. I’ve been a fan ever since.
The only “problem” with them is that their jokes are so vulgar, so over the top rude, that it’s hard to share them. Especially with the kids. I mean, even their merch–which includes a hat that says Morning Brown is hard to explain without going a bit red in the face.
So what was this show going to entail?
Well, the promo told us this
Dear Human Beings,
Hello, I am a Magical Dead Cat, the titular Magical Dead Cat from the very title of this very show. I write to you today because I have discovered the most wondrous sketch show on the popular streaming service Netflix – Aunty Donna’s Big Ol’ House of Fun. I was so impressed with said show that I issued Aunty Donna this challenge: entertain me with a 2 hour live show, one that features all new sketches, but also a few fan favourites. It MUST include a short interval, and based on availability / budget, possibly an opening act. If Aunty Donna succeeds in pleasing me with a rip-roarin’ show, I have promised to surprise them with a special, web slinging, mystery guest!
Come, sweet humans, and see if Broden, Zach and Mark are up for the task!With loving grace,
The Magical Dead Cat.
The show also came with a warning that there would be occasional coarse kanguage. Nothing could be further from the truth. It was filled front to back with nothing BUT coarse language.
They opened the show by having an announcer introduce each of the three comedians. And as each one’s name was announced they came to the front of the stage and did a high-stepping dance. But the announcer continued to re-introduce Broden and Mark, as Zach’s face fell and the other two grew exhausted from all of their dancing. (more…)
