cake or death?
06 December 2008
Stand-up Comedy performed by Eddie Izzard in San Francisco. The live performance is perhaps best known for the classic cake or death sketch in which Izzard contrasts the Catholic fire and brimstone teaching with Church of England niceties. Izzard is brilliantly inventive and his performance really is like no other. What other comedian could pack in random topics such as squirrels, makeup, Englebert Humperdink, Burundi, Stonehenge, the Heimlich Manoeuvre, learning French, Darth Vader and national anthems in the space of two hours? Every single bit of his stand-up is fantastic and he truly is a joy to watch. Dress To Kill is incredibly funny and Izzard's comedy cannot fail to entertain.
