Scott Capurro

Comic. Actor. Author.

This was printed in a Prague Magazine, called Prague TV, although it’s neither a TV guide nor a transvestite mag. Not that I’m judging; being reviewed by a tranny is one of life’s little pleasures. He liked me, but more to the point, he got what I was trying to do. I just love love love Prague, and Amiel Bruch

A REVIEW FROM MY MOST RECENT SET IN WIVENHOE – YES, ESSEX – ON FEB. 22, 2007 AT THE FUNNY FARM, a very sweet, smart little comedy room set in a football club. Sounds hot. Was a bit not, but the atmosphere was great and the skinny audience somewhat dreamy…

From the East Anglia events magazine, Grapevine Scott, a San Franciscan, is camper than a troop of Brighton boy scouts pitching a row of pink chiffon tents. Although in Scott’s case you’ll find that the chiffon tears you apart like shark’s skin and the guy ropes are razor wire. He too had to deal with […]

Bruce, from the Evening Standard, liked the show. I guess. You decide.

Strictly for strong stomachs By Bruce Dessau, Evening Standard 02.02.07 Taboo-busting: Scott Capurro does not care who he offends Not for the narrow minded Critic’s choice: Top five comedy shows You wait ages for a comedian to discuss having sex with Jesus, then two come along in the same week. After Richard Herring’s playful mock-blasphemy […]

The Scotsgay review, which is (5 Stars) really lovely.

The Stand 2 ***** If you haven’t seen this show yet, go now before he books out! Capurro is highly offensive in the extreme, and offers no apologies as he jokes about AIDS, cancer, the Holocaust and battered women. He claims to not read the newspapers because they’re not about him, but his political satire […]

Another great review, this time in the Scotsman. I’m such a gem…

Scott Capurro **** KATE COPSTICK THE STAND (VENUE 5) WELL, now I have seen everything. After this show I watched Scott Capurro – the man who makes sulphuric acid look like Oil of Olay – stand upstairs in The Stand, shaking hands with his entire audience of mainly middle-aged, upper middle class, Scottish-conservative, straight folk […]

The Stage made me a “must see” cuz i’m so, i dunno, good i guess.

Scott Capurro – Yankee Dog-Pig The Stand When Scott Capurro opens with the innocent line “Have you read the Qur’an?” you have two choices – run for the hills or sit back, enjoy and be damned for all time. Mind you, as a beleaguered (mainly by lesbians) gay man, Capurro’s a great believer in equal […]

Prague Fringe Festival Review

by

The Prague Fringe Festival, Second Night May 30, 2006 6 p.m. Scott Capurro, Yankee Dog Pig Scott Capurro is crude, rude and out of line. He’s also hilarious. There is nothing sacred in Capurro’s world. In fact, everything from Anne Frank to racial stereotypes is fair game. Even Capurro’s queerness is worth a lacerating look. […]
