An evening of music and comedy with Boothby Graffoe and guitarist Antonio Forcione at Komedia.
Boothby Graffoe and Antonio Forcione are playing together at Komedia on Saturday 10 October, in a show called Wot Italian?. It's a night that sits somewhere between a comedy gig and a concert, with Graffoe on the singing and the jokes and Forcione on the guitar.
Graffoe is a comic and songwriter who's spent years working across both music and stand-up, and here he's paired up with Forcione, an Italian guitarist. The two of them describe the show as a 'hilarious and heartwarming collision' of Graffoe's wit and Forcione's guitar playing, with songs, banter, and a Mediterranean touch running through it. It's a mix of the two coming together on stage rather than one supporting the other.
If you're familiar with Graffoe, you'll know he doesn't really do one thing or the other — he's as much at home with a guitar in his hand as he is with a microphone. Forcione brings the instrumental side to the pairing, and the 'Mediterranean' part of the description comes from his Italian background. The set is built around songs and the conversation that happens between them, so it's a night for anyone who likes their music with a bit of comedy on the side.
