★★★★★ Mail On Sunday ★★★★★ Observer ★★★★★ Standard ★★★★★ Guardian “Mesmerising and unpredictable” Chortle
Sometimes controversial but always downright funny, Carey Marx is an absolute must see. Long before turning his hand to comedy, Carey Marx was a magician who once made Princess Beatrice cry. A circuit veteran, Marx concocts his own blend of dark humour with mischief and glee. His wilful disregard for the controversial and taboo is tempered with his ability to find joy in the most unexpected places.
