Jimmy James Eaton’s sausage sizzle’ is part of the Wild West comedy festival. This Cut Snake Comedy presentation is showing at the Red Sea Night Club, 83 Rokeby Road, Subiaco at 8.30 on the 29th and 30th March and 7.30 on Saturday 31st.

Jimmy James is known throughout the length of Australia for his amazing feats and challenges in the ABC series ‘How the quest was won’, and it is a hilarious collection of video snippets from this series that starts the show off. Surprisingly this is Jimmy James’ first stand-up comedy gig, but this did not trouble him for a second. For a full 45 minutes the delivery was energy filled, crisp and beautifully timed fun.

The act – directed by David Ryding – included quality impersonations, verbal sound effects and plenty of spontaneous humour. The script was a mixture of childhood experiences and his interpretation of his favourite TV shows and films.

Congratulations to Ben Russell for his superb warm up performance.

If this show is too late, try award winning Claire Hooper’s earlier show ‘Showgirl’ at the same venue.
