Award-Winning British Comedian, Nik Coppin
Comedy
Presented by:
NIK COPPIN & LAUGHING HORSE COMEDY
An increasingly popular figure on the Australian comedy circuit and at festivals and tours worldwide, British stand-up comedian Nik Coppin comes back to his beloved Adelaide, and he brings with him a new and hilarious show based around the silly and personal awards he has won, as well as the situations he has managed to get into in the past. With his trademark inimitable unrivaled style of banter, story-telling and affable persona, with an underlying tone of serious, intelligent humour, Coppin will take Adelaide audiences through a show inspired by fans and friends that have made his previous visits to South Australia so memorable. He has won awards for things that you might not think. They are silly, unusual tales of trinkets presented, juxtaposed with wickedly funny stories of other related strange and interesting situations. Due to commitments in other parts of Australia and the UK, which almost meant Coppin having to miss the Adelaide Fringe, he is only performing four dates of this show, that is unique to Adelaide. Early booking is advisable! "Could Nik Coppin be any more spectacular? Fast paced, witty, fun and amazing, all without any pretension. The guy you want to be seen at, seen with.", Shaggers show ***** - Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2010 "He bounds across the stage, talks at 100mph and generates an irresistible atmosphere of good old-fashioned fun" - Chortle.co.uk, Edinburgh Fringe 2010 "Amazingly funny stories, wickedly clever insights and a sense of fun that will drag anyone in. Super funny, super fun and charisma up the wazoo, Nik's awesome! 9/10_x001D_ - Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2009 "The banter is slick and engaging. He goes off on the sort of wild tangents beloved of messers Izzard and Noble" - Chortle.co.uk, Edinburgh Fringe 2008 "A rapid fire non-stop act full of energy. His hour went so quick, his charming smile and easy manner had the audience eating out of his hand and wanting more._x001D_ - 9/10 - Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2006 "I became an avid fan of Nik's after seeing him perform in Adelaide& As a regular comedy goer there, and in Melbourne I was instantly struck by the uniqueness of his manner, material and presentation. Whatever the crowd, or the venue, Nik's shows are always a hilarious affair, while Nik himself is affable, instantly likeable, and lets face it, bloody sexy too!" - Adelaide fan review on Chortle.co.uk, 2010 "My Dad has seen Richard Pryor roll out back in the day, and another relative has told me tales of what it was like to see Lenny Bruce both before anyone knew he was as well as Bruce at his prime. I have always been so jealous of them for that. But now, because of what I saw of Coppin's uber-pro performance in Hollywood, I can brag at them as they have at me!" ***** - Hollywood Fringe fan review on Chortle.co.uk, 2010 http://www.nikcoppin.com http://www.shaggerscomedy.com http://www.laughinghorseadelaide.com
