Chris Corcoran

Corcoran makes his people sound rather lovely

It’s not surprising that this young Welsh stand-up should have such a winning stage presence, given he was previously a kids entertainer on CBeebies. His second Fringe show (after a 2004 debut with Welsh Assembly) follows an illuminating tour of his home country, and is largely about what it means to be Welsh. Old clichés – sheep-shagging - are replaced with new - binge drinking in the valleys – but somehow Corcoran makes his people sound rather lovely.

Le Monde, 270 3914, until 30 Aug, 6.45pm, £5.
